A locked garden is the secret place where Princess Iolanta grew up. Sealed off from the outside world, she doesn't know that she is blind. Her father King René absolutely wants to protect his daughter from this realization. But the Moorish doctor Ibn-Hakia only sees a chance for Iolanta's healing if she expresses her wish for this healing. Then a stranger, the Burgundian knight Vaudemont, breaks into Iolanta's garden...

Premiered in 1892 together with the »Nutcracker«, Peter Tchaikovsky's last opera is now a rare treasure on theaters around the world. However, the dramatic basis for the work, the Danish drama »King René's Daughter« by Henrik Hertz, was one of the most successful stage works of the 19th century. The symbolic fairy tale attracted the highly romantic composer to one of his most intoxicating scores, which the Venezuelan director Carlos Wagner, who has already staged in Kiel, Wagner's »Flying Dutchman« and Verdi's »Macbeth«, will transform into a fascinating visual world between fin de siècle and today.

English

Ein abgeschlossener Garten ist der geheime Ort, an dem Prinzessin Iolanta aufwächst. Abgeschottet von der Außenwelt weiß sie nicht, dass sie blind ist. Ihr Vater König René will seine Tochter unbedingt vor dieser Erkenntnis bewahren. Doch der maurische Arzt Ibn-Hakia sieht eine Chance für Iolantas Heilung nur gegeben, wenn sie selbst den Wunsch nach dieser Heilung ausspricht. Da bricht ein Fremder, der burgundische Ritter Vaudemont, in Iolantas Garten ein …

1892 zusammen mit dem »Nussknacker« uraufgeführt, ist die letzte Oper Peter Tschaikowskis heutzutage eine seltene Kostbarkeit auf den Spielplänen weltweit. Die dramatische Vorlage für das Werk, das dänische Drama »König Renés Tochter« von Henrik Hertz, war jedoch eines der erfolgreichsten Bühnenwerke des 19. Jahrhunderts. Das symbolistische Märchen reizte den hochromantischen Komponisten zu einer seiner rauschhaftesten Partituren, die der venezolanische Regisseur Carlos Wagner, der in Kiel bereits Wagners »Fliegenden Holländer« und Verdis »Macbeth« inszeniert hat, in eine faszinierende Bildwelt zwischen Fin de Siècle und heute verwandeln wird.
