The first complete performance of German composer Karlheinz Stockhausen's opera Mittwoch aus Licht (Wednesday from Light) is to premiere this summer.
More than 150 performers will take part in the Birmingham Opera Company's five hour production, which will form part of the London 2012 Festival.
The opera includes Stockhausen's best-known piece, in which a string quartet plays live from four helicopters.
The performance will take place at Birmingham's Argyle Works in August.
