Babylon: Opera by Widmann at the Concertgebouw
Sobre o Evento
Seize this rare opportunity to hear modern opera on an epic scale. The scale and lyricism of Widmann and philosopher‐librettist Peter Sloterdijk's work created a sensation with its premiere at the Bayerisches Staatsoper in 2012.
Exploring timely themes of multiculturalism against a backdrop of exile, this concert performance — the first since the premiere — is mounted under the baton of Markus Stenz with Matthias Klink and role‐creators Kai Wessel and Gabriele Schnaut among the cast.
