 Enjoy
a high-caliber, dazzling performance of the first Russian opera to be presented
by the New National Theatre, Tokyo(NNTT).
Pyotr I. Tchaikovsky (1840-93), who is well known for his symphonies and ballet music written with bravura orchestration, also left important works in the operatic field. In particular, "Eugene Onegin", the first Russian work in the NNTT repertoire, is a Russian operatic masterpiece comparable to Boris Godunov by Modest P. Mussorgsky. Tchaikovsky viewed the complicated relationships among the characters as determined by fate and portrayed these relationships with elaborate and dynamic music, making a strong impression on the audience. In addition, the stage setting and costume brought from the Bolshoy Theatre, as well as the gorgeous cast of powerful singers, including Galina Gorchakova, should not be missed.
Synopsis
Russia in the 1820s. Tatyana, daughter of Larina, a landowner in a farming village, is strongly attracted to Onegin, who came with Lensky, sweetheart of her sister, Olga. She confesses her growing love for Onegin in a letter to him; however, he rejects her. One night, while a ball is in progress at Larina's house, Onegin dances only with Olga, inviting the jealousy of Lensky. This develops into a duel and Onegin kills Lensky. With a heart of atonement, Onegin starts on a wandering journey. After years have gone by, Onegin reappears in front of Tatyana, who is now a princess and is highly celebrated in fashionable society. Now, in contrast to his previous behavior, he confesses his passionate love to her. But Tatyana no longer accepts his love. |
