Dr. Dee: An English Opera

Damon Albarn of Blur/Gorillaz fame (as well as the thousand other projects he's been involved with) is currently putting the finishing touches on his opera, "Dr. Dee: An English Opera," an opus about the medical and scientific adviser to Queen Elizabeth I. Heavy stuff, but also pretty good. It's set to premier at the Manchester International Festival in July. Check out the live, acoustic performance of "Apple Carts" on British TV.
