Vasily Petrenko conducts Rimsky‐Korsakov's 'The Golden Cockerel'
Sobre el espectáculo
Revel in Rimsky‐Korsakov's biting satire and luscious melodies, as celebrated conductor Vasily Petrenko leads a concert performance with a starry cast. Venera Gimadieva returns to the role of the Tsaritsa — a role that won her great acclaim in her debut at La Monnaie in 2016.
The subject of intense official disapproval — and a consequent ban from Russian theatres — at the time of its composition, this barely‐veiled allegory of power used unwisely and without regard for consequences has a timeless relevance. A scathing judgement of imperial power conveyed in a richly‐colored score, and with the very darkest of humor, this is a performance not to miss!
