About

The uncompromising course of Shakespeare’s play is mirrored in this contemporary opera in two parts (sung in German), music whose almost tangible energy catapults the listener into a realm of irresistible fantasies. Sebastian Weigle, new conductor-in-chief at the Oper Frankfurt, is the director of music.
