The nuptials of eros and thanatos unveil their irresistible attraction in Alban Berg's unfinished 'Lulu', based on the work of German playwright Frank Wedekind, considered one of the major works of the 20th c. in general, and of opera in particular. + Krzysztof Warlikowski delves the innermost depths of the human psyche and chooses to tackle "Lulu" as a deeply moving requiem 'to the memory of an angel'. + Featured in the title role is Canadian soprano Barbara Hannigan. + Paul Daniel conducts the Orchestre symphonique de la Monnaie. + "... a genuinely fresh take on Alban Berg's work."
