Based on the tragedy of Queen Sempoala's attempt to seize the throne of Mexico until she took her own life, \"Queen of the Indies\" was written in Purcell's final years, but was never completed due to Purcell's premature death. Fascinated by this work, Peter Sellers spent 25 years developing the idea and adapting the story and characters of Nicaraguan author Rosario Aguilar's novel \"The Lost Chronicles of Terra Firma\" to Purcell's opera.In addition to the original music and libretto (approximately 50 minutes) for \"The Queen of India,\" the musical side of the production includes Purcell's religious anthems and instrumental pieces, while the libretto adds the text of Aguilar's novel.
