Pelléas et Mélisande: Festival d'Aix‐en‐Provence
Over het evenement
The Festival d'Aix‐en‐Provence presents Katie Mitchell's anxiously awaited staging of Claude Debussy's "Pelléas et Mélisande", with Stéphane Degout and Barbara Hannigan in the title roles. Esa‐Pekka Salonen leads the Philharmonia Orchestra in this new production, which highlights the opera's dreamlike realism.
Debussy based his opera on the play by Maurice Maeterlinck. Steeped in mystery, it is a tragic story of love and jealousy between Mélissande, Golaud, and Golaud's half‐brother Pelléas.
Sung in French with French and English surtitles.
