Rusalka returns to Madrid “on an overwhelming level that will leave its mark” (El Español). Mesmerizing soprano Asmik Grigorian, “already one of the most outstanding sopranos of her generation” (Online Merker), stars with a “voice at its zenith of maturity“ (El País) in the title role of Christoph Loy’s timeless and evocative staging of Dvorák’s tragic take on the Little Mermaid fable. “The direction of dancers and extras in the second act is a virtuoso performance by Loy and his choreographer” (El País). “Musically, this Rusalka is of immense quality, no doubt due to the spectacular work of Ivor Bolton” (El Español).
History
Antonín Dvorák’s Rusalka
Dvorák’s soulful take on the “Little Mermaid” story is a romantic fairy tale full of genuine emotion and lush melodies, including the title character’s enchanting “Song to the Moon.” First seen in Prague in 1901, Rusalka is one of the few Czech operas to hold a permanent place in the international repertoire.
