Inhalt: |
Championing love and personal heroism in the face of eccIesiastical oppression and poIiticaI chicanery, Wagner s third opera explores characteristic themes with terrific energy which culminates in the eponymous Roman tribune s famous prayer to the gods of his fatherIand, foIIowed by a riot which prefigures the young composer s own abortive career as a firebrand and revolutionary. Within the timeIess and elegant minimalism of Jorge LaveIli s production, Torsten KerI brings ringing authority to the title roIe, supported by the experienced Wagnerian Pinchas Steinberg. |
