Toni's new opera, "2045: The Year Man Becomes Immortal" will be performed in July on this iconic location in West Sussex at an invitation only event.
"2045: The Year Man Becomes Immortal" revolves around the hypothetical event called Singularity, a point at which, rather than humans developing new technologies, new technologies would develop themselves at a rate far beyond our comprehension. It is also linked to the ability to prolong human life to the point of making us immortal. The issue of mortality, death and afterlife spans across the work.
Oliver will be countertenor lead soloist in the opera
Oliver will be performing with soprano Alexandra Kennedy for the second time at PETFRINGE.

“2045: The Year Man Becomes Immortal” was an article published in Time Magazine in 2011 by Lev Grossman. The article features Ray Kurzweil, Director of Engineering at Google Inc., who describes how we are approaching a moment when computers will become intelligent, and not just intelligent but more intelligent than humans. When that happens, humanity – our bodies, our minds, our civilization – will be completely and irreversibly transformed. Kurzweil believes that this moment is not only inevitable but imminent. According to his calculations, the end of human civilization as we know it is about 30 years away. This article and a deeper exploration on Kurzweil’s work became the foundation for this eponymous musical work where the composer explores his own reflections on life, death and afterlife and on whether technology is really going to save humanity.
Featuring the composer’s trademark blend of operatic and classical traditions with downtempo electronica and sound art, “2045: The Year Man Becomes Immortal?” is 55min. long and is structured in 5 sections mirroring the five stages of a fruit tree, a classic metaphor for the cyclic nature of life. The first three sections explore the process from life to death, the last two open to door to immortality. These two blocks are exactly separated at the Golden Ratio at 34min. All the timings of the individual segments and subsegments of the piece follow nature’s omnipresent Fibonacci Sequence.
