Kasper Holten’s intense and powerful opera interpretation of a gripping Greek drama.

A bloody orgy of vengeance has unfolded. Orest has slain his mother and her lover. Manfred Trojahn's opera Orest picks up precisely where Richard Strauss' Elektra concludes – at the very moment when the awareness of guilt emerges ...

Orest features music and lyrics by the multi-talented German artist Manfred Trojahn, one of his generation's foremost opera composers. Kasper Holten directs this blood-soaked opera about a family caught in a spiral of violence, while Marie Jacquot, the theatre's newly appointed chief conductor, breathes life into the music's many dramatic tones.

Despite the plot's intense and bloody drama, the story ultimately concludes with a ray of light and hope. The German heroic baritone Christoph Pohl takes on the role of Orest, supported by the Royal Danish Opera's distinguished soloists, Elisabeth Jansson as Elektra and Gert Henning-Jensen as Menelaos.

Since its world premiere in Amsterdam in 2011, Orest has been performed on several of the world's leading opera stages, and the influential German opera magazine Opernwelt named it the Premiere of the Year in 2012.

Orest is performed in German with Danish supertitles.

The Royal Danish Theatre expresses its gratitude to the Obel Family Foundation for their generous support for the production of Orest.

Recommended for ages 15 and up.

English

Kasper Holten fortolker intens og stærk opera over gribende græsk drama
 

Operaen åbner med et skrig. Et blodigt hævnorgie har fundet sted. Orest har dræbt sin mor og hendes elsker. Manfred Trojahns opera Orest begynder, der hvor Richard Strauss’ Elektra slutter - når samvittigheden sætter ind …

Orest har musik og tekst af den tyske multikunstner Manfred Trojahn, der er en af sin generations største operakomponister. Kasper Holten iscenesætter den blodige opera om en familie fanget i en spiral af vold, og Marie Jacquot, teatrets nytiltrådte chefdirigent, giver liv til musikkens mange dramatiske klange. 

Orest tager fat, hvor Richard Strauss’ Elektra slutter. Det gælder handlingen, der følger den antikke fortælling om Orests skæbne, efter at han slog sin mor og hendes elsker ihjel. Det gælder også musikken, der på flere måder er en videreudvikling af Strauss’ ekspressionistiske tonesprog med udtryksfulde melodiske passager.

Selv om handlingen er blodigt dramatisk, så ender det hele alligevel med et glimt af lys og håb. Den tyske heltebaryton Christoph Pohl er Orest, og han er flankeret af Den Kongelige Operas solister Elisabeth Jansson som Elektra og Gert Henning-Jensen som Menelaos.

Orest er siden urpremieren i Amsterdam i 2011 blevet opført på flere af verdens førende operascener, og det toneangivende, tyske opera tidsskrift Opernwelt valgte den som årets uropførelse i 2012.

Orest synges på tysk med danske overtekster.
