DEATH IN VENICE
After a stunning ‘Billy Budd’ last season, Scottish Opera turns now to ‘Death in Venice‘, Britten‘s last opera, written in the early Seventies after Thoman Mann‘s novella ot the same name. Premiered atthe 1983 Edinburgh Festival this production was hailed then as ‘theatrically brilliant, musically exciting . . . and not to be missed’ and the revival opening on Tue 19 at Glasgow's Theatre Royal directed by David Walsh, Scottish Opera's new Head ot Production, promises to live up to such critical acclaim. Like Walsh, conductor Richard Bernas is making his debut with the company, although he is known to Scottish audiences through appearances at the 1987 Musica Nova and with the SCO at the 1986 Edinburgh Festival. Taking the central role at the novelist. Aschenbach, written, like much at
A"- . Britten’s music, tor his triend Peter Pears, is Philip Langridge, lastseen with Scottish Opera as Captain Vere in ‘Billy Budd'. Feeling that he is ‘drying up’, Aschenbach takes a trip to Venice, whose combination of the grand and the tatty fascinates both Mann and Britten. He becomes obsessed with a 12 year-old Polish boy staying at his hotel, who lultils his ideal ol beauty and even though the plague has reached Venice and is destroying Aschenbach, he stays to be near the boy he has come to love. Cast also includes Jonathan Summers, Timothy Wilson (counter-tenor), Alan Oke and Yvonne Barclay. ‘Death in Venice' is not touring and there are live pertormances only in Glasgow on 19, 21, 23, 28 and 30 April (see listings).
