Opéra Nouvel de Lyon

Lady Macbeth of Mtensk by D. Shostakovich, from Opéra National de Lyon, performed at Opéra Nouvel, 2016. Directed by Dimitry Tcherniakov, conductor Kazushi Ono, starring Ausrine Stundyte,Jeff Martin,Peter Hoare,Almas Svilpa,Clare Presland,John Daszak,Michaela Selinger,Vladimir Ognovenko,Gennady Bezzubenkov. Performed in Russian and subtitled in French.

From the start Katerina is isolated in a parallel world, a prisoner, and director Dmitri Tcherniakov shows through the four acts of this opera that is as compellingly logical as it is outrageous, how her soul gradually shatters. Kazushi Ono leads the Orchester de l'Opéra National de Lyon into the depths of Shostakovich's music, into every detail, the glaring blackness.
