The Yellow Sofa preview

A story of love and loss, of betrayal and deception, of sex and a city, of wounded pride and attempted retribution – of plumply inviting sofa cushions. Based on a short story by Eça de Queirós and written specially for Glyndebourne by our first Composer-in-Residence Julian Philips, with a text by Edward Kemp.

Glyndebourne Tour 2012 is taking this new opera to venues in the UK this autumn. Find out more and book here: glyndebourne.com/yellowsofatour2012
