Arrigo Boito is one of the most unique figures in the history of music, not least of all because of his work as a poet: he is responsible for some of the finest librettos ever written for opera (including, for example, Otello). Smitten with Wagner and metaphysics, it's no surprise that he became enamoured with Goethe's Faust, in particularly with the figure of the devil. Mefistofele is his sole completed opera for which he also composed the music. Balázs Kovalik's thrilling production focuses on the mystery of the eternal duel between God against Satan, using powerful imagery to amplify Boito's own personalised poetic treatment of the subject.
