A newly honoured community opera exploring the climate crisis has been recognised for its impact and ambition
Composer Jonathan Dove – a Trinity College, University of Cambridge alumnus – was presented with his fourth Ivor Novello Award for Uprising, a community opera co-commissioned by Saffron Hall Trust and Glyndebourne. Focusing on the climate crisis, the opera aims to inspire real change, using a fictional family to emphasise the universality and timelessness of this particular cause.
