Singer

Giacomo Puccini composed his Il trittico as a triptych of one-act plays in which shudder, sadness and laughter are successively evoked. The three short operas are now being performed together for the first time at Dutch National Opera and are the culmination of the three-year Puccini series by conductor Lorenzo Viotti and director Barrie Kosky .

Il trittico

National Opera & Ballet

In one of the strongest and most evocative post-war operas, Benjamin Britten paints the moving picture of an individual who succumbs to the hypocrisy of a small community.

Peter Grimes

With Die Frau ohne Schatten , composer Richard Strauss and librettist Hugo von Hofmannsthal created a layered fairy tale about two couples in search of meaning and new life in a cold and barren world.
