Why See Lyric Opera of Chicago: Les Troyens?

Classical & Opera

brand new staging

Known as one of French opera's most ambitious works, the Lyric Opera of Chicago present the Lyric premiere and brand new staging of this vast epic, bringing together The Fall of Troy & The Trojans at Carthage in much-anticipated production by Sir Andrew Davis that promises to be as astounding and vivid as Berlioz's incredible score.

Inspired by Virgil's The Aeneid, The Trojans was Berloiz's last masterpiece. Pushing the boundaries of a grand opera, the piece combined runs for over five hours, as the story melds imperceptibly with the excitingly visceral score, taking us on the journey of the Trojans, from their first interaction with the famed wooden horse, to years of exile as they head to establish a new capital in Italy. At it's heart is the romance between the warrior King Aeneas and the powerful Queen of Carthage, Dido. But how will love fair in the face of destiny and interference from the gods. Rarely performed, this really is a sumptuous treat for the eyes and ears and is not to be missed by fans and newcomers alike.
