Odysseus: Komische Oper Berlin

O wydarzeniu

Embark on a romantic musical journey at the Komische Oper Berlin: Monteverdi's Odysseus appears in new form, with orchestration by the acclaimed contemporary composer, Elena Kats‐Chernin.

After 20 years of war and wanderings, Odysseus hopes ­to return at long last to the lost Arcadia of his erstwhile home. But during his first encounter with Penelope, which ends with him slaying her suitors, his wife does not recognise him as her longed‐for husband, marked as he is by war. Thus the coming‐together of these two long‐separated, alienated wedded couple turns into a final test of love.

In German language, with German, English, French, and Turkish subtitles.
