La Reine / The Queen I Premiere on February 12, 2017 at the Nationaltheater Mannheim Musical direction: Benjamin Reiners Artistic direction: Jan Dvořák based on the conception of Thomas Bischoff Singer: Angela Denoke Actress: Catherine Janke Actress: Franziska Rieck Actor: Frank Richartz No opera, no recital, no drama. And yet gripping music theater. – An unusual creation brings two highlights of song literature to the stage under the title La Reine / The Queen: Les nuits d’été by Hector Berlioz and Richard Wagner’s famous Wesendonck songs. It takes an exceptional artist like Angela Denoke, who is one of the leading singers of her generation, to make these darkly romantic works shine. According to Thomas Bischoff's conception, the two cycles from the middle of the 19th century are combined with existential texts by Arthur Rimbaud and Gottfried Benn, which form the third element of this Franco-German evening. A nerve-wracking allegory of the uncontrollable forces of power, love and death is created in an impressive stage landscape of symbols and signs. www.nationaltheater-mannheim.de SHOW LESS
