Ottorino Respighi’s “mystery in three episodes,” Maria Egiziaca started out as a concert triptych. Its intensely dramatic and at times symphonic qualities give it a character somewhere between an oratorio and an opera. Based on the life of Saint Mary of Egypt, the archaic story of Maria Egiziaca revolves around faith seen through its various characters, with Maria’s journey from prostitution to sainthood conveyed as an expressive and eloquently immediate musical fresco. This Teatro La Fenice production of Respighi’s profoundly moving and deeply sensuous stage work was critically acclaimed.
