"Inconvenient Truth" to become an opera
The Huffington Post reports that Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth will be made into an opera for the 2011 season at La Scala in Milan. Composer Giorgio Battistelli has been commissioned to set the famous Keynote slide deck to music.







Robert Gardner
Is this a joke? An “opera?” Where is the character, or character development? Is this report not a report of a classical commission to be set to the slide show? That does not an opera make. Sorry.
