Giuseppe Verdi's LA TRAVIATA is the most-performed opera in the entire repertoire – and the fourth of Puccini’s Toaster’s innovative productions at Theater im Delphi.
Puccini’s Toaster bring their signature style: a classic repertoire piece newly conceived and interpreted, with the performers and the space at the heart of this conception and the audience immersed in the action of the piece. A casual opera-going atmosphere – the bar stays open! – and musicianship of the highest quality: the inaugural performance of the newly established Kreuzberg Kamerata, and a cast of international Berlin-based soloists. www.puccinistoaster.com
In his brand new opera, composer Cyrus Meurant musically explores the surviving Fragments of the pre-Socratic philosopher HERAKLEITOS. Ideas of flux and the unity of opposites, creation, consciousness, and humanity's desire to understand all things are traversed in a series of seven tableaux. Philosophical concepts including one cannot step into the same river twice and fire will come upon and lay hold of all things provide a timely opportunity for us to consider the human project of knowledge in the face of an inevitable demise, knowing that whilst all things come into being and pass away, the beginning and the end are common. The Kreuzberger Kamerata under the musical direction of Rebecca Lang collaborate with Birger Radde, Samantha Britt and Ziad Nehme to bring this new work to life for the very first time. https://www.elbphilharmonie.de/en/whats-on/kreuzberger-kamerata/10666
