Henze’s astonishing final opera is a rhapsodic re-imagining of a classical tragedy. The luminous score pulsates with ritualistic percussion and possesses an “otherworldly beauty that is hard to resist” (New York Times), all the while challenging our expectations of what opera can and should be. This production is brought to life by the Royal Opera's Jette Parker Young Artists.
