Les Pêcheurs de perles Bizet

On the Chamber Stage of the Bolshoi Theater, the premiere of Georges Bizet's opera The Pearl Fishers took place on December 10, 2020. A new edition was chosen, made by conductor Brad Cohen based on the author's score discovered in the 1990s and manuscripts stored in the National Library of France (stage conductor Alexei Vereshchagin). The production team, headed by director and stage designer Vladislavs Nastavshevs, created an ascetic, minimalist performance in which every scene and gesture is significant. According to the director, he set the goal "not to illustrate the events, but to enable the viewer to imagine this story, having dived inside himself." 

This is the story of the rivalry between two friends, pearl divers Zurgi and Nadir, who are in love with the beautiful Leila. The priestess of Brahma will have to make a much more difficult choice: between duty and feeling. 

On November 23 and 24, South Ural residents have a unique opportunity to see this performance performed by opera soloists, choir and orchestra of the Chamber Stage of the Bolshoi Theater of Russia! 

The tour is held within the framework of the Cooperation Agreement between the Chelyabinsk Region and the Bolshoi Theater of Russia. The program "Big Tours" is implemented by FGBUK "ROSCONCERT" in accordance with the All-Russian tour and concert plan of the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation.

The work is performed with the permission of CF PETERS Leipzig London New York.
