Elektra by Richard Strauss

Opera in one act by Richard Strauss op.58, Libretto by Hugo von Hofmannsthal after the tragedy by Sophocles + Coproduction with the Deutsche Oper am Rhein!

Last performed at the Grand Théâtre de Genève in 2010

This musical challenge will be taken up by Jonathan Nott at the head of his Orchestre de la Suisse Romande. The dramatic female triangle will be carried by three exceptional interpreters of the German repertoire: the famous Swedish Ingela Brimberg, who excels in Wagnerian and Straussian roles, in the title role. Along her side, the American Sara Jakubiak plays her sister Chrysothemis, and Tanja Ariane Baumgartner brings the mother Clytemnestra to life.
