Water Memory
From the venue:
Water Memory (Jala Smriti) was awarded the Antinori Foundation Grand Prize in the 96-Hour Opera Project in June 2024.
Written by Kitty Brazelton and Vaibu Mohan, Water Memory is based on a provided prompt of integrating AI into a creative work. The two were paired by the 96-Hour Opera Project team and the match was serendipitous.
Both composer Kitty Brazelton and librettist Vaibu Mohan shared the experience of witnessing the decline of a beloved older woman in their family due to dementia. For this creative team, Water Memory has become a deeply personal story about the power of memory, family, and connection.
