Based on the mystic poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke, and John Milton's Paradise Lost, Angel marks the culmination of Edwin Huizinga's commission for Opera Atelier - the first iteration of the work took place in the Royal Chapel in Versailles in 2017, where Opera Atelier was invited to participate in the official Canada 150 Celebrations.
