This mini-opera for female voice and electronics composed in 2012 explores the relationship between Snow White and the Queen from the classic fairy tale “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.” The work can either be performed by one singer who plays both roles, or two singers (soprano and mezzo-soprano). The electronics are run through a MaxMSP patcher.

In 2020, Essential Opera produced a video adaptation of this work.

In 2015, Anna Pidgorna adapted the score into a series of illustrated prints. The prints combine linoleum printing with handworked yarn, tissue paper and watercolour elements. A very limited number of sets (total of seven produced) is available for sale from the composer.
