Hong Kong Arts Festival: Amopera

Hong Kong Cultural Center, Grand Theatre, Hong Kong
March 19, 2025 7:30 PM

A reinvention of music theatre – thus Klangforum Wien’s first meta-opera, a semi-staged journey through the operatic literature of the past 100 years, was hailed enthusiastically. Starting with Zemlinsky, via Sciarrino and Saunders, all the way to Xenakis, the spectrum covers nothing less than love in all its potentialities and impossibilities. Together with the Needcompany, the musicians of Klangforum Wien present themselves as a lively collective of performers, wholeheartedly and powerfully on stage.

With the kind support of: Tiroler Festspiele Erl, Haselsteiner Familien Privatstiftung

A semi-staged meta-opera

with excerpts from works by Luciano Berio, Sir Harrison Birtwistle, Alexander Zemlinsky, Alban Berg, Benjamin Britten, Peter Maxwell Davis, Iannis Xenakis, Salvatore Sciarrino, Bernhard Lang, Beat Furrer, Rebecca Saunders, Michael Wertmüller and Sara Glojnarić
