MAIN ROLE WITH AND WITHOUT VOICE
Hard in love, extraordinarily talented mermaid wants to become human and pays for it with her beautiful voice. But the infidelity of the human prince whom she adores brings him death and the mermaid a return to the realm of spirits. With which she at least gets her voice back and can finish the piece with the purest beautiful singing, but does not find her peace of mind ... So much, so short, the plot of Antonín Dvořák's best-known and probably also best opera »Rusalka«. The "lyrical fairy tale" premiered in Prague in 1901 about the doomed love of a supernatural water creature for a terrestrial human has since resonated in the ears of hundreds of thousands of opera fans around the world - albeit mostly not in its entirety, but only in the form of that one excerpt:

However, Dvořák's wonderful music, his undoubted talent for lyrical (natural) moods and in this case his artful handling of leitmotifs are definitely worth encountering the »complete package«! And so Chief Conductor Alan Gilbert decided to bring the opera with the NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra to the stage of the Elbphilharmonie as part of the Hamburg International Music Festival, which this time has the motto "Nature" as its motto.
