Munich Opera Festival, June 21 – July 31, 2014
Founded more than 130 years ago, the Munich Opera Festival is among the world's oldest musical theatre events. Nowadays, the festival's programme features the best works that have been shown at the Munich Opera this and previous seasons, assembling outstanding musical talents to perform them. This summer, Polish director Krzysztof Warlikowski will be in the festival spotlight, with several of his directed works on the repertoire. One of them is Kabaret Warszawski, a harsh musical portrayal of contemporary human and political realities in Eastern Europe that will be presented by Warsaw's Nowy Teatr.
Latvian soprano Kristine Opolais will also be performing at this year's Munich Opera Festival, portraying Vitellia in Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's opera La Clemenza di Titio, which will be directed by Jan Bosse (Germany) and conducted by Adam Fischer (Hungary). In another eagerly waited event, virtuoso tenor Jonas Kaufmann (Germany) will present Liederabend, a special evening of song.
For years, well-known German director Peter Konwitschny has been responsible for adding a little provocative spice to the festival, and this year is no exception, with Konwitschny directing and Gabriel Feltz (Germany) conducting Richard Wagner's The Flying Dutchman.
