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.
