    A complex life which came into conflict with the political and religious powers of the day, Galileo is a searching meditation amidst questions of faith in a violent, hostile and uncertain world.

     

    Is this a biographical musikdrama about Galileo?

    It is definitely an opera on the life of Galileo, but I would not call it a biography. inom learned from Richard (Mills) that opera implies a degree of marvel, and that the referential, biographical elements are a starting point for addressing something that goes beyond the life of the character. In biographies, the protagonist may become an exemplar, a point of reference to think about humans in general, our life, etc. In this opera, this does not komma from an accurate depiction of ‘what happened’: the musical, lyrical and dramatic material is immediately translated into something that transcends history and the story.

    1948

     

    At 9.30 a.m. on a Monday morning early in January 1948 my career in show business commenced. My first job was to collect two black cats from a pet shop near Cambridge Circus in London. I picked them up, put them in a wicker basket and set off by taxi to the Piccadilly Theatre, where as an assistant stage manager I was going to join the company of the play ‘I Remember Mama’ for the first day of rehearsals. The play had been an enormous success on Broadway and the theatrical company H.M. Tennent had decided to present it in the West End starring the leading lady from Broadway, Mady Christians.

    I arrived at the stage door of the Piccadilly, paid off the taxi, which in those days cost nine pence plus three pence tip. I entered the stage door and was greeted by the company manager, a charming gentleman named Paddy Donnell.
