Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Opera Saratoga, and the Bergamot Quartet join forces this October to present a workshop performance of THE OTHER SIDE OF SILENCE by librettists Mark Steidl and Katherine Skovira and composer Robert Whalen.  THE OTHER SIDE OF SILENCE is a new opera for synthetic and acoustic voices written by and for people who use Augmentative and Alternative Communication. The story draws direct inspiration from the life of Mark Steidl, a gender non-binary person who uses an Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) device to talk with the world. 

The Other Side of Silence

Curtis R. Priem Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center (EMPAC)

A series which hands the mic to cutting-edge creators who break through boundaries of what opera can be through investigations of classic repertoire and creation of new vocal works.
