When two young people in Verona first set eyes on each other, their lives are changed forever. They know they are destined for each other, even though their families are sworn enemies due to a blood feud. Their tragic fate is therefore inevitable.

Roméo et Juliette

La Monnaie - De Munt

The male alliance of the Knights of the Grail is in crisis. Time and again, knights desert to the opposite realm of the sorcerer Klingsor, who had previously been rejected by the circle of knights.

Parsifal

Vienna State Opera

Felix Mendelssohn composed his monumental oratorio Elijah in 1846, at the height of his career. The work combines the grandeur of Handel and Bach with Mendelssohn’s Romantic refinement. Dramatic choral passages, intimate arias, and virtuosic ensembles alternate in a score that vividly portrays the struggles and spirituality of the prophet Elijah.
