L'Histoire du soldat / Into the Little Hill: Opéra Comique
Gennevilliers, Théâtre de Gennevilliers T2G
About the Event
A soldier seduced by the devil, a pied piper who steals away the children: two folk tales about power and loss. Stravinsky and Ramuz wrote in 1918 a universal piece hailed by Poulenc as a major work George Benjamin and Martin Crimp made of their first opera a poetic piece that has since become a classic. Daniel Jeanneteau, who contributed to the world premiere of Into the Little Hill in 2006, returns to the work in collaboration with Marie‐Christine Soma. The Opéra‐Comique partners with the T2G in Gennevilliers to (re)discover the scope of these two tales.
