From Nov. 7-20, 2001, the Boston Lyric Opera presented the Boston premiere of "Resurrection," with a libretto written by music and theater arts Lecturer Laura Harrington and music by Professor of Music and Media Tod Machover. Commissioned by the Houston Grand Opera, which premiered it in 1999, "Resurrection" is based on Leo Tolstoy's final novel, an unusual love story between a prince and a serving girl whose fates become intertwined when the prince sits on the jury that unjustly condemns the woman to prison.
