Richard Strauss: Elektra

Andris Nelsons "seems to draw the best from every orchestra he works with,” wrote The New York Times. His riveting interpretation of Richard Strauss’s opera Salome was one of the glories of Carnegie Hall’s 2014 Vienna: City of Dreams festival. He now returns to the podium with the composer’s searingElektra. “It’s hard to imagine better,” wrote The Guardian of soprano Christine Goerke’s Covent Garden performance in the title role. Goerke and a stellar cast join the Boston Symphony Orchestra and Nelsons for a night of this spellbinding music in concert.
