L'Elisir d'Amore: Deutsche Oper Berlin

About the Event

The Deutsche Oper Berlin presents Irina Brook's new production of Donizetti's 'Elixir of Love', a work whose mirth is rooted in gentle melancholy.

The story recounted by Donizetti and his librettist Felice Romani is a simple one: Adina and Nemorino are in love, yet neither finds the courage to confess their love for the other person. Not until he recalls a single tear in Adina's eye, the famous 'furtiva lagrima', does Nemorino realize that his love is requited, triggering one of the most famous tenor arias in the history of opera.

In Italian with German and English surtitles
