Welcome to the Voice is a short opera for voices, string quartet, keyboards, guitars, symbols, and one wind player who adds accents on instruments ranging from a clarinet to a shakuhachi. In many ways, Welcome to the Voice differs from others in the line of works that try to merge popular and classical styles in a dramatic framework. For one thing, it really feels like an opera - the story, though simple, has a convincing over-the-top quality. Dionysos (Sting) is a steelworker of Greek descent, "a worker in the arsehole of this planet," who discovers opera. My heart was ripped open by this angel and demon music," he sings, and he conceives a fatal passion for the Opera Singer (Bonney).

He also wrote other songs on the album as Steve Nieve. In the mid-1980s, Costello began to work less frequently with the Attractions and stopped working with them entirely between 1987 and 1993. Nieve followed these with the albums It's Raining Somewhere (1996), Mumu (2001) and Windows (2004). His classical opera, Welcome to the Voice, a collaboration with Muriel Téodori, was released on Deutsche Grammophon in May 2007. The score was interpreted by Barbara Bonney, Sting, Robert Wyatt, Elvis Costello, Amanda Roocroft, Nathalie Manfrino and Sara Fulgoni for the voices. For the music the Brodsky Quartet interpreted a written score, while Marc Ribot, Ned Rothenberg and Nieve improvised In 2014, he released To. .

The music is by longtime Elvis Costello keyboardist and collaborator Steve Nieve, to a libretto by his creative and personal partner, Muriel Teodori, and the project originated with her desire to create a work based on "the collision between two very different aesthetic and social worlds, and to juxtapose a classical string quartet playing from a strict score with a jazz formation playing.
