This DVD and Blu-ray derive from the world premiere performances at the Dutch National Opera in 2016 of Only the Sound Remains a Japanese-inspired double bill by Kaija Saariaho. Her first opera L’Amour de loin has captivated audiences around the world and she composed Only the Sound Remains with the ethereal tones of Philippe Jaroussky in mind. Appropriately the French countertenor plays two supernatural characters an angel and a ghost. The fisherman and priest who encounter them are both sung by baritone Davone Tines while the production is the work of the celebrated director Peter Sellars.
