Like many of John Adams’ operas, Doctor Atomic is based on recent world historical events - here, the effusive Robert Oppenheimer, “father of the atomic bomb,” anxiously awaits the bomb’s first test in Los Alamos, New Mexico. Adams adapted the work into a symphony, comprising its three main acts.
Director: Dick Kuijs
Music by: John Adams
