SUMMARY:Salome - Jochanaan - Staatsoper Hamburg
DESCRIPTION:Under the face of the wandering moon\, spirit and body quarrel in all their greatness and wretchedness until the blood of two bodies flows. Strauss remains close to Wilde’s re-creation of the biblical material\, which leads Salome from her mother’s tool to autonomy. It is she who\, in her unfulfilled desire for the liberatingly different\, the body of the prophet Jochanaan\, seeks revenge and demands his head – a price the male-dominated society around Herod is willing to pay for their dance. Now that Salome holds his severed head in her hands\, she can kiss Jochanaan\, possess him if not alive\, then dead. As if under a burning glass\, Strauss pours Oscar Wilde’s demonic dramaturgy into sound like an eruption of the psyche\, accompanying his protagonist from her failed escape from the decadence of her existence to her death. \nProduction: Dmitri Tcherniakov\nCostumes: Elena Zaytseva\nLighting: Gleb Filshtinsky\nDramaturgy: Tatiana Verestchagina\, Janina Zell \nIn German language with German and English surtitles\nSupported by the Foundation for the promotion of the Hamburg State Opera \n \nGunter · Richard Strauss: Salome ROH

SUMMARY:Don Giovanni - Title Role - Metropolitan Opera
DESCRIPTION:World premiere: National Theater (now Estates Theater)\, Prague\, 1787. Aided by his ingenious librettist\, Lorenzo Da Ponte\, Mozart approached his operatic retelling of the Don Juan myth from a point of view that is neither tragic nor entirely comic\, but rather lighthearted\, urbane\, and ironic. We follow the title character and his earthy comic sidekick\, Leporello\, through a series of encounters that begins with a fatal duel\, moves back and forth between the humorous and the sentimental\, and ends with the protagonist being dragged down to hell. \n \nPhilharmonia Orchestra · Don Giovanni: Overture

SUMMARY:Faust - Méphistophélès - Bayerische Staatsoper
DESCRIPTION:On his futile search for the meaning of life\, the ageing scholar Faust makes a pact with the Devil. Méphistophélès buys his soul and promises him eternal youth and love. Faust falls in love with Marguerite\, however she soon leaves him. After she has killed their child\, Marguerite succumbs to madness\, but emerges morally superior from the encounter with Faust. \nOf the numerous scorings of the most famous material in the history of German literary\, the opera by the Frenchman Charles Gounod is perhaps the best known. In the 19th century the French opera developed an immense fondness for the German material\, but it was often very free with the restructuring for the libretto. From the original the successful French librettist duo\, Michel Carré and Jules Barbier (also the authors of the text of Les Contes d’Hoffmann) actually made a most effective opera text with a pronounced dramaturgy of contrasts – drinking scenes are contrasted with intimate ballads\, soldier choirs with the church service hymns of supplication. Not least of all because of its immortal arias\, after Bizet’s Carmen\, Gounod’s Faust has become the most successful French opera. \n  \n \nwww.gbopera.it · Charles Gounod (1818-1893): “Faust” (1859)

SUMMARY:Faust - Méphistophélès - Bayerische Staatsoper
DESCRIPTION:On his futile search for the meaning of life\, the ageing scholar Faust makes a pact with the Devil. Méphistophélès buys his soul and promises him eternal youth and love. Faust falls in love with Marguerite\, however she soon leaves him. After she has killed their child\, Marguerite succumbs to madness\, but emerges morally superior from the encounter with Faust. \nOf the numerous scorings of the most famous material in the history of German literary\, the opera by the Frenchman Charles Gounod is perhaps the best known. In the 19th century the French opera developed an immense fondness for the German material\, but it was often very free with the restructuring for the libretto. From the original the successful French librettist duo\, Michel Carré and Jules Barbier (also the authors of the text of Les Contes d’Hoffmann) actually made a most effective opera text with a pronounced dramaturgy of contrasts – drinking scenes are contrasted with intimate ballads\, soldier choirs with the church service hymns of supplication. Not least of all because of its immortal arias\, after Bizet’s Carmen\, Gounod’s Faust has become the most successful French opera. \n  \n \nwww.gbopera.it · Charles Gounod (1818-1893): “Faust” (1859)

SUMMARY:Orest - Elektra - Staatsoper Hamburg
DESCRIPTION:The Gründerzeit: In this bourgeois family\, no one will find salvation. Their lives become a living hell. Elektra – the first part of the Strauss trilogy designed for the Hamburg State Opera by director Dmitri Tcherniakov – is a psychological exploration of the self-destruction of a family clan. Tcherniakov’s shift in focus from myth to family is no accident: Strauss saw a spoken theater production of the ancient myth in 1903\, a free adaptation by Hofmannsthal\, who subsequently became his brilliant librettist for six operas. Even in their debut work\, Strauss and Hofmannsthal dissected what lurked behind the bourgeois facade of Viennese refinement in their time: the abyss. Revenge against Elektra and Orestes’ father will destroy them all.\nThe tragedy premiered on January 25\, 1909\, at the Royal Opera in Dresden. The Hamburg production premiered on November 28\, 2021.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe first part of director Dmitri Tcherniakov’s Strauss trilogy is a psychological exploration of the self-destruction of a family clan.

SUMMARY:Orest - Elektra - San Francisco Opera
DESCRIPTION:Grief. Obsession. Vengeance.\nIn a brutal world where revenge is enacted with the axe\, Klytämnestra has murdered her husband Agamemnon. Their daughter Elektra is consumed by her grief and is fixated on vengeance against her mother. Justice must be served. \nSan Francisco Opera’s production\, praised by the San Francisco Chronicle as “extraordinary” and “stunning\,” brings us to a modern-day museum and an exhibit on Elektra. A young woman grappling with her own life is pulled into the ancient narrative in this ingenious production by Keith Warner—a taut psychological thriller in which the past and the present become one. \nMusic Director Eun Sun Kim conducts Richard Strauss’ expressionist masterpiece\, replete with one of the largest orchestras in the repertoire. The intense emotions of this Greek tragedy are rendered on a vast scale by Strauss’ massive soundscape and a score that winds up the dramatic tension with an intensity that can only lead to one horrific outcome. \n  \n \njessicaphillipsclarinet · Strauss “Elektra”\n

DESCRIPTION:Grief. Obsession. Vengeance.\nIn a brutal world where revenge is enacted with the axe\, Klytämnestra has murdered her husband Agamemnon. Their daughter Elektra is consumed by her grief and is fixated on vengeance against her mother. Justice must be served. \nSan Francisco Opera’s production\, praised by the San Francisco Chronicle as “extraordinary” and “stunning\,” brings us to a modern-day museum and an exhibit on Elektra. A young woman grappling with her own life is pulled into the ancient narrative in this ingenious production by Keith Warner—a taut psychological thriller in which the past and the present become one. \nMusic Director Eun Sun Kim conducts Richard Strauss’ expressionist masterpiece\, replete with one of the largest orchestras in the repertoire. The intense emotions of this Greek tragedy are rendered on a vast scale by Strauss’ massive soundscape and a score that winds up the dramatic tension with an intensity that can only lead to one horrific outcome. \n  \n \njessicaphillipsclarinet · Strauss “Elektra”\n

SUMMARY:Faust - Méphistophélès - Bayerische Staatsoper
DESCRIPTION:On his futile search for the meaning of life\, the ageing scholar Faust makes a pact with the Devil. Méphistophélès buys his soul and promises him eternal youth and love. Faust falls in love with Marguerite\, however she soon leaves him. After she has killed their child\, Marguerite succumbs to madness\, but emerges morally superior from the encounter with Faust. \nOf the numerous scorings of the most famous material in the history of German literary\, the opera by the Frenchman Charles Gounod is perhaps the best known. In the 19th century the French opera developed an immense fondness for the German material\, but it was often very free with the restructuring for the libretto. From the original the successful French librettist duo\, Michel Carré and Jules Barbier (also the authors of the text of Les Contes d’Hoffmann) actually made a most effective opera text with a pronounced dramaturgy of contrasts – drinking scenes are contrasted with intimate ballads\, soldier choirs with the church service hymns of supplication. Not least of all because of its immortal arias\, after Bizet’s Carmen\, Gounod’s Faust has become the most successful French opera. \n  \n \nwww.gbopera.it · Charles Gounod (1818-1893): “Faust” (1859)
