Description
Opera in four acts by Giuseppe Verdi
Co-production with Opéra Grand Avignon
In Italian with German surtitles
Introduction at 19:00 by Frédéric Roels, staging
Yannis Pouspourikas, musical direction
Welcome to Egypt during the time of the Pharaohs, the setting of Verdi's most magnificent opera. Since its premiere in 1871 in Cairo, "Aida" has delighted audiences with grand triumph scenes, with drums and trumpets – and with a love that endures to the death. Verdi's "Aida" is one of the classics of the opera repertoire and remains a magnet for audiences today. With gripping and musically compelling storytelling, Verdi narrates the tragic story of Aida and Radamès, of a land at war, of a woman torn between father, lover, and homeland. It is a highly emotional relationship drama where personal feelings and political calculations clash irreconcilably. Verdi's preferred means: monumental choirs, heartfelt arias, and passionate duets. Almost unnecessary to mention: Verdi's world-famous triumph march is a cult beyond the opera stages. The Theater Orchestra Biel Solothurn TOBS! already thrilled audiences in Friedrichshafen last season with its production of "The Magic Flute." Now, the multi-genre house for opera, concert, and drama returns to the lake with Verdi's "Aida." Anyone wishing to experience once more how gripping opera can still be today should not miss this spectacle! Tickets: 76 / 64 / 50 / 30 €
School groups: 9 € per person.
