MIECZYSŁAW WEINBERG

A talk about the composer and screening of his opera The Passenger

hosted by Jan Špaček

 

The first is on Mieczysław Weinberg, a Polish-Russian composer of Jewish extraction, whose 100th birthday we will commemorate in December, and who is a subject of attention at this year’s festival. As part of the occasion, Weinberg’s opera The Passenger (1967/1968) will be screened. The film, made at the 2010 Bregenz Festival, shows the world premiere of the opera, directed by David Pountney with the Wiener Symphoniker and the Prague Philharmonic Choir and soloists including Michelle Breedt, Roberto Saccà and Elena Kelessidi, conducted by Teodor Currentzis.
