SEVEN STONES, an opera production of the Festival d'Aix-en-Provence making its world premiere this summer in Aix, wins the FEDORA - GENERALI Prize for Opera for new lyric creations of excellence amounting to €150000.

This innovative opera, written by young Czech composer Ondřej Adámek and Icelandic poet Sjón, is an invitation to a thrilling journey through Argentinian, Icelandic, Japanese and French cultures. In this modern opera, everything is set to live an unprecedented experience that intimately combines sung, spoken and whispered voices and the monumental sound installations that create the scene. SEVEN STONES is a contemporary opera that will push boundaries.
