Wozzeck

Vi viser operaen "Wozzeck" fra The Metropolitan Opera mandag 3. februar.

Bergs stykke fra det 20. århundre skinner bariton Peter Mattei i tittelrollen, med musikksjef Yannick Nézet-Séguin på pallen og sopranen Elza van den Heever som den langmodige Marie. Den banebrytende billedkunstneren og regissøren William Kentridge avduker et dristig nytt iscenesettingssett i et apokalyptisk ødemark.

Ny produksjon.

Dirigent: Yannick Nézet-Séguin.
Rollebesetning: Elza van den Heever (Marie), Tamara Mumford (Margret), Christopher Ventris (The Drum-Major), Gerhard Siegel (The Captain), Andrew Staples (Andres), Peter Mattei (Wozzeck), Christian Van Horn (Doctor).

“Extraordinary”
— The New York Times

“HEART-STOPPING BEAUTY … A SHATTERING EXPERIENCE … The new production created by William Kentridge and conducted by Yannick Nézet-Seguin is RICH, EXPANSIVE AND REVELATORY on stage and in the pit.”
— Wall Street Journal

“SEARING BEAUTY … Wrenching, profound … Peter Mattei sang with BURNISHED SOUND and aching sadness … Elza van den Heever sent phrases slicing through Berg’s orchestra … EXTRAORDINARY.”
— New York Times

“DAZZLING … Visually rich and musically memorable … Kentridge has a vision, and it’s in full flower here … Nézet- Séguin is the SUPERB conductor, drawing sounds both powerful and delicate from the terrific Met orchestra … A full house and PROLONGED CHEERS.”
