| Stony Brook Opera: Mozart's "Die Entführung aus dem Serail" |
|
Event Description Stony Brook Opera presents Mozart’s Die Entführung aus dem Serail ("The Abduction from the Seraglio"), fully staged, sung in German, with the spoken dialogue in English. Conducted by David Lawton and directed by Leigh Holman.
The opera recounts the efforts of the Spanish nobleman Belmonte and his servant Pedrillo to rescue their sweethearts Constanze and Blonde, who are imprisoned in a Turkish harem after a shipwreck. With this production, Stony Brook Opera completes another three-year repertoire cycle that includes one Baroque opera, one contemporary opera, and a standard work. The most recent cycle began with Cavalli’s opera Eliogabalo in 2010, and continued with the double bill of Peter Winkler’s Fox Fables and Sheila Silver’s The Wooden Sword last season. The Mozart opera is the standard work in this cycle.
