La Morte di Romeo et Guilietta

Opera | Singing: Caroline Adler (2015)

Romeo and Juliet end up in the hospital after their failed suicide attempt, where they meet Tristan and Isolde, who also failed to kill themselves. The fiery Italians then start flirting with the Northern Lights, which leads to numerous errors and confusions.

La Morte di Romeo et Guilietta is a highly romantic and impressionistic opera for 7 singers and orchestra by David Reichelt. David Reichelt spins two of the most famous stories of our culture in an amusing and twisty way, but transfers the plot into the modern age and thus gets the opportunity to hold up a mirror to our society.
