A pencil and a notepad :p
I guess you'd better start with building an appropriate theatre ; don't worry, just follow "Pratica di fabricar scene e macchine ne‘ teatri" and you'll get set up in no time, with gods descending from above, devils surging from the bowels of the earth and other high seas tempests (with monsters) - all the normal things you need in any decent opera. Have fun!
Start with immersing yourself into operas. Old pieces, contemporary pieces... this could be a good start.
Go have a roller coaster ride and "write" it out with your screams. As you calm down, there will be no opera left in your mind. 🤭
Just rerelease Lakme, no one will notice
Well, you would, for starters! No this will be an original piece, I can’t talk about the actual story line - this is HOT baby.
I suppose the real first step would be to watch a few with the script in your hand and then just steal everything you like. That's how art works, anyway.
If I understand correctly, it's common for the composer and the script writer to be different people, so... maybe team up?
The plot....
That is partially finished, I have also selected the voices. In my head I can already hear a lot of the piece, and occasionally I hum partitures from it in the shower.
That’s so dope! Will you upload a video of the finished product to Lemmy ?
