Abstract
The objective of this dissertation is to compose an opera for nine voices and full orchestra using a libretto taken from a modern interpretation of the novel "Carmilla," by J. Sheridan LeFanu. The opera tells the story of a young girl who seeks to understand the mysterious land her family came from and how she discovers that her family history is more than she could possibly imagine. Due to the recent resurgence of vampires in popular culture, this dissertation seeks to explore the validity of vampires being utilized as subject matter in the operatic medium.
