The Nose: Finnish National Opera
About the Event
Renowned stage director Peter Stein directs Shostakovich's masterpiece, "The Nose", at the Finnish National Opera.
What happens when the nose of a Collegiate Assessor in St Petersburg drops off his face and takes on a life of its own. For the young Shostakovich, the story offered a chance to create brilliantly uproarious music that crossed genres and continues to fascinate with its freshness.
