Charles Wuorinen is going to write an opera based on Brokeback Mountain.
This should be interesting. Wuorinen has recently (2001; staged in 2004) written an opera based on Salman Rushdie's Haroun and the Sea of Stories.
I haven't heard much of his stuff aside from his Webern-esque string quartet, but this is definitely up on my dream list of performances I'd like to check out once I get a real job.
