Two Boys An Opera in Two Acts Vocal Score 歌剧 声乐总谱

受大都会歌剧院委托创作。尼科-穆利的这部歌剧的灵感来源于几年前发生在英格兰北部的一起真实案件，它进入了青少年卧室的秘密世界，探讨了网络生活的现实和风险。一个十几岁的男孩被刺身亡。另一个男孩被闭路电视拍到离开现场。这似乎是一起悬而未决的案件。但是，当探长安妮-斯特劳森调查大男孩的故事时，她发现了聊天室会面、虚假身份、虚构的间谍组织和淫秽的网络性爱等离奇的关联，最终得出一个结论：这与其说是谋杀，不如说是网络自杀"

原文简介:
Commissioned by the Metropolitan Opera. Loosely inspired by a true case that happened in the North of England a few years ago, Nico Muhly's opera enters the secret world of the teenage bedroom and explores on the realities and risks of living our lives online. A teenage boy is fatally stabbed. Another boy is caught on CCTV leaving the scene. An open-and-shut-case, it would seem. But, as the Detective Inspector Anne Strawson investigates the older boy's story, she uncovers a bizarre nexus of chatroom meetings, false identities, fictitious spy rings and raunchy cybersex, leading to just one conclusion: it wasn't so much murder as suicide by internet.
