Opera to tackle life of Gaddafi
BBC News snip

British band Asian Dub Foundation have been commissioned to write an opera about Libyan leader Colonel Gaddafi.

The band normally play a fiery mix of rock, dance and Asian beats - but guitarist Chandrasonic is now working with the English National Opera (ENO).

ENO artistic director Sean Doran said: " is a subject matter of our time, and I think with opera we have to look at the stories around us."

The opera is expected to be completed for performance in 2006.
