Product Information

Produktinfo:
Die Aufführung von Berlioz’ „Les Troyens“ in englischer Sprache an Covent Garden 1957 markiert einen Wendepunkt in der Rezeption des Werkes. Sah man es zuvor als problematisches Werk an, das man allenfalls stark gekürzt goutieren konnte, gab die Londoner Produktion mit Rafael Kubelik und Jon Vickers den ursprünglichen Intentionen des Komponisten Recht. Publikum und Kritik waren überwältigt und ein Grundstein war gelegt für die Berlioz-Renaissance der 1960er Jahre.
