Auditori

Monumental operas deserve epochal productions. And "Les Troyens" by Hector Berlioz is one such work. This grand opera, featuring ensembles and ballets, large choirs and orchestral pieces, is given appropriately grand treatment in this production by the renowned Catalan theater company "La Fura dels Baus", recorded at the Palau de les Arts in Valencia. In this co-production with St Petersburg's Mariinsky Theater and Warsaw's Wielki Theater, Fura director Carlus Padrissa has his faithful collaborators Franc Aleu (video), Roland Olbeter (set design), Chu Uroz (costumes) and Peter van Praet (lighting) gathered around him, who also designed Valencia's sensational "Ring des Nibelungen" (also to be seen on fidelio). "That this is such eye candy

In the first part of the work, Padrissa plays with the current meaning of "Trojans" as computer viruses: His Trojan horse carries the infection that causes system failures and ultimately destruction. In the second part, Carthage is presented as the mysterious seat of a future civilization where human life is on the way to self-destruction caused by environmental disasters. "Ancient myth meets Star Wars" (International Herald Tribune).

Much of the production's success is due to conductor Valery Gergiev, who "directs a thoughtful, detailed performance and elicits delicate playing from the orchestra" (International Herald Tribune). The Orquestra de la Comunitat Valenciana itself emphasizes "the high musical quality it has achieved in its fifth season" (Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung). Among the great casts with excellent singers, the lead trio stands out: Daniela Barcellona as "breathtaking Dido" (Das Opernglas) and "true prima donna" (Il Resto del Carlino), the effortlessly singing Lance Ryan as Aeneas and Elisabete Matos, the a "intense, highly expressive" (Das Opernglas) portrait of Cassandra. This is a "worthy and compelling glittering version"

An epic Opera by Hector Berlioz based on Virgil's Aeneid. A joint production of the Palace of arts of Queen Sofia (Valencia), the avant-garde troupe "La Fura dels Baus", the Mariinsky theatre and the Polish national Opera.
