Khaos is an enthralling and moving work. Furthermore it is profoundly beautiful, musically and in every other respect that I can think of. I have come away enriched. It would be a crime if it is not produced on a major stage — and soon too. In the meantime, congratulations to everyone involved.

Couldn’t say it any better than Will. Dirk & I were really thrilled by the musicality of the performance…saw the finale in Creston, & believe too it must enter Canadian opera repertoire to stay & be many times staged in future, worthy as it is! Thanks to every single soloist, chorus member, musician, stage director,…& especially to the pair who gave us the music & libretto! Such a creative work of art!!!
