Ariadne on Naxos by Strauss, st 23 feb 2011, Od (2011/2011), Režírované Roy Rallo, Dirigent Kwamé Ryan, Grand Théâtre de Bordeaux, Bordeaux, France

New Opera production in two parts (a prologue and an act) on a libretto by Hugo von Hoffmansthal. Created in Stuttgart at the Neues Königliches Hoftheater on October 25, 1912. In partnership with the Librairie Mollat Opera within opera, Ariane à Naxos reveals to the public what they are not used to seeing. The opera is an invitation to reflect on artistic creation, constantly navigating between tragedy, comedy and political satire. A true singularity in the musical literature of the early 20th century, it is also a work apart in the creation of Strauss, using a contrasting discourse, alternating the low and the light, magnifying the orchestral splendors teeming with inventiveness and celebrating three dazzling female roles.
