Obra: Daphne

Presented without staging, Seattle Opera’s concert Daphne places Strauss’ extreme vocal demands and saturated orchestral writing in sharp relief, offering a high-risk encounter with a rarely heard late opera.

A strong cast led by Hye-Youn Lee, Shengzhi Ren and Brad Cooper head a magnificent semi-staged Daphne, conducted by Stuart Stratford.

Vera-Lotte Boecker springt kurzfristig ein – und dominiert den Strauss-Abend am Haus am Ring.
