Salonen Conducts Bluebeard’s Castle: Christian Van Horn Bass

Overview
A taut and gripping thriller, Bartók’s one-act opera follows Duke Bluebeard and his newest wife Judith as she opens the seven doors of his castle and discovers increasingly disturbing sights. Opera stars Christian Van Horn and Ekaterina Gubanova bring to life these ill-fated characters. Juxtaposed with this macabre folktale is Beethoven’s joyful Second Symphony.

Sung in Hungarian with English supertitles.

Bluebeard’s Castle by arrangement with Boosey & Hawkes, publisher and copyright owner.
