about

Gormenghast is an opera in three acts composed by Irmin Schmidt to an English-language libretto by Duncan Fallowell, based on Mervyn Peake's Gormenghast Trilogy. It premiered at the Wuppertal Opera House in 1998 and ran for nine months in Wuppertal and at the Musiktheater Gelsenkirchen.

Times critic Rodney Milnes wrote: "If Richard Strauss had written rock music, this is what it would have sounded like - gloriously, unashamedly lush."
