Tonight's Opera on 3 is a recording of the British premiere of Judith Weir's new opera Miss Fortune, from the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden. Miss Tina Fortune is born into a wealthy family, but loses her luck thanks to the meddling hands of Fate, who is ever-present on stage with her. Her fortune only begins to improve when she confronts Fate, and they come to a truce. Judith Weir's new opera includes break-dancing, lottery wins, exploding kebab vans, and some beautiful music. Sara Mohr-Pietsch presents and talks to Judith Weir and conductor Paul Daniel about the opera.
