Macbeth Underworld - Oper von Pascal Dusapin (2021)
Pascal Dusapin delves into the deepest abysses of the human soul and, with highly complex music that is dazzling and incredibly changeable, creates a blood-stained work, a parable about man's lust for power. Macbeth, who murdered the king and became king himself, died a violent death after his reign of terror. Pascal Dusapin and his librettist Frédéric Boyer have cursed Macbeth and his lady to relive and reenact their story over and over again in the underworld. Lorenzo Fioroni stages it as an eternal nightmare in the antechamber to hell, where all the spiritual garbage of human history has accumulated in Paul Zoller's stage design.
