Glyndebourne Tour 2012 presents
Rusalka
MAIN AUDITORIUM
Strangely moving, deeply weird and hauntingly beautiful…the audience was clearly stunned and excited by its power. THE DAILY TELEGRAPH
Antonín Dvořák
Dvořák’s take on Hans Christian Andersen’s The Little Mermaid is not only his finest and most enduringly popular work but arguably one of the most deeply moving operas of all.
A water nymph’s desperate longing to experience true love plunges her into the emotional maelstrom of life at a handsome Prince’s court. She emerges with a profounder understanding of the unspeakable pain, as well as the fleeting joys, of human existence.
Acclaimed at its Festival debut in 2009, director Melly Still magically captures the opera’s romance and comedy, as well as the raw grotesquery and even savagery of its folk-tale world.
Sung in Czech with English supertitles.
