Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk: Dmitri Shostakovich
Lo spettacolo
Explore the dark side of human nature in the tragic opera that alienated Shostakovich from the Soviet elite.
Dmitri Tcherniakov, the modern master of this challenging work, joins with Kazushi Ono — equally expert in this repertoire — and a cast that could not be bettered: Sir John Tomlinson, Peter Hoare, John Daszak, and Ausrine Stundyte, whose 2014 debut in the title role stunned critics and audiences alike.
Sung in Russian with French surtitles.
