MIO, MEIN MIOOper von Peter LeipoldLibretto von Friederike Karig nach dem gleichnamigen Kinderbuch von Astrid LindgrenAuftragswerk des Theaters ErfurtIn deut...

Bo Vilhelm Olsson, whom everyone just calls "Bo", lives with uncaring foster parents and is bullied by other children. The only ray of hope is his best friend Benka, who also has the kind of father Bo would have wished for. When he is given an enchanted apple one day and he frees a genie in the park, everything changes: the genie takes him to a far-off country where his real, loving father reigns as king. So Bo is actually a prince and his name is Mio. Together with his new friend Jum-Jum and his horse Miramis, he explores the country. When he learns that his destiny is to fight the cruel knight Kato, who has a heart of stone and steals the children from the far-off lands, Mio faces his greatest fears:

Astrid Lindgren's fairytale story is full of repetitive poetic motifs, and the magic of the music also plays a major role in the course of the story. Composer Peter Leipold takes this opportunity to kidnap young and old into a world full of musical leitmotifs, catchy melodies, great emotions, exciting harmonies and a wide variety of timbres - a magical introduction to the world of opera.
