She grew up in the eternal ice and is therefore immune to the cold. But Rimsky-Korsakov's title character, Snow Maiden, longs for nothing more than to meet people. In her search for love, she must learn that this feeling is not only overwhelming but also life-threatening…

Snowflakes: Opera by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov

Hessisches Staatstheater Wiesbaden

A blind old man teaches surviving children music-making. In a hospital a touring production of an opera entitled “Love and Guilt” is given, which shortly before it ends, is subject to a bombardment which wipes out all involved, including the audience. But again, music shepherds in hope in this dark world and the opera ends with a choral apotheosis.
