The Golden Cockerel: Bergen National Opera

Sobre o Evento

Bergen National Opera presents The Golden Cockerel by Rimsky‐Korsakov at the magnificient Grieg Hall in Bergen, Norway.

The brilliant Russian composer Rimsky‐Korsakov (1844‐1908) wrote his last opera as a fairy tale, but the authorities in his homeland were not fooled: Behind the opera's seductive surface of sensual music and exotic stories lies a story of biting criticism of the Tsar and his efforts in the Russian‐Japanese war.

Emmy and Tony award winner Mark Lamos presents this wonderful production in Bergen.
