Rihm's Jakob Lenz at Hampstead Theatre: a Testament to Modern Opera

Arthur Keegan-Bole, 20th April

In the cosy confines of a packed Hampstead Theatre ENO’s English adaptation of Jacob Lenz produced an exciting, entertaining and emotionally draining 70 minutes of opera. Premiered in 1979 this is Rihm’s account of Sturm und Drang writer Jakob Lenz’s descent into madness.
