Technical Sheet
Ella-Miau (2018) 50’
Opera in one Act for soprano and ensemble
Libretto by Juan Trigos Synister
Instrumentation: alto saxophone, electric guitar, piano/Fender piano/accordion (one player) and percussions (one player)
Synopsis
The madness was present, outside of it, She-Meow, since she was born. She took the form of a woman. She put her mother’s hat on her head, obsessed with the idea of being a cat. Then, the waters of madness soaked the inside of her person and she, She-Meow, was left homeless, without a father and without herself, but treasuring the immense affection of a mother who never accompanied her.
