Allen Cole, composer of "How It Storms." What’s the best way to describe the Arraymusic Studio, on Walnut Street in downtown Toronto? Is it a loft? A warehouse space? Whatever the label, the place is dripping with post-industrial chic. And it was here, on Wednesday and Thursday evenings, that a new chamber opera – How It Storms – by composer Allen Cole and librettist Maristella Roca was performed.
Owing to the limited size of the performing space, only a small audience could be admitted to see How It Storms each night. I attended on Thursday evening, and I count myself lucky to be among the 100-or-so people who experienced the piece during its brief run.
