“  Iphigenia in Tauris plunges us into the heart of the tragic fate of the House of Atreus: Orestes is consumed by the murder of his mother, while Iphigenia is forever marked by her failed sacrifice, orchestrated by her own father. These are two tormented souls, profoundly alone, who recognize themselves in a deeply moving emotion. Moreover, the unwavering friendship between Orestes and Pylades, ready to face death together, adds even more to the dramatic intensity of the work. Traetta’s music, at the crossroads of Neapolitan bel canto and Gluckian drama, perfectly captures this tragic tension. His vocal virtuosity is never gratuitous: it serves a powerful expressiveness, where each vocalise, each musical line conveys a raw and sincere emotion. Rocío Pérez, with her ability to combine virtuosity and dramatic depth, will embody a heart-wrenching Iphigenia.”
The Innsbruck Festival, with its commitment to rediscovering rare works, is the ideal setting for this production. I have conducted there before and have unforgettable memories of it. It will be a great pleasure to return, surrounded by an exceptional cast and with Nicola Raab on stage, to bring this intense score back to life .
