| Description |
Watching his wife dance under the stranger's spell, King Roger struggles with his own passions - choosing between the sacred love he knows and the sensuous, glittering realm of hedonism the shepherd preaches. Szymanowski's intoxicating, incandescent music is rarely heard on the operatic stage, so don't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to hear a 20th Century Polish masterpiece. |
