No opera demonstrates more vividly than Tchaikovsky’s The Queen of Spades the fact that people’s desires are often their undoing. The outsider Herman wants nothing more than to succeed at card-playing but loses everything in the end. Lisa searches for her great love, is bitterly disappointed and takes her life. There is also a mysterious Countess with magical secrets. It is a dark world, which Tchaikovsky reveals in passionate, dramatic music. After staged productions at the Easter Festival in Baden-Baden, Kirill Petrenko conducts the work in a concert performance at the Philharmonie Berlin.
