Pauline
City Opera's repertoire base reaches from Monteverdi through to the music of our own time. On 11 March 2008, via satellite from Toronto and Vancouver, City Opera announced the commissioning of the chamber opera 'Pauline'. It will star Judith Forst in the role of Pauline Johnson, and be set at Vancouver in March 1913, the last week of Johnson's life. The libretto will be by Margaret Atwood, and the music by Tobin Stokes. It will be premiered in May 2014, at the century-old and restored York Theatre, and recorded by Naxos.
