Ariadne auf Naxos - Richard Strauss (1864 - 1949). April 30, May 3, 12, 15, 18, 21, 27, 29, 2011. Sung in German with English SURTITLES.
"How do you cap an evening of pure magic? With more magic."

The Independent

In this opera-within-an-opera, madcap backstage melodrama is just a precursor to onstage expressions of love, loss and spiritual transformation.

Sir Andrew Davis makes his COC debut, conducting Strauss’s sublime score. Neil Armfield directs a stellar cast, including Adrianne Pieczonka, Richard Margison and—making their COC debuts—Jane Archibald and Alice Coote.
