Kostprobe: «Peer Gynt»

In the organizer's words:

Introduction and rehearsal visit. If you would like to know what to expect from our new productions and upcoming concerts before the premiere, the taster sessions are the right place for you. They offer anyone interested the opportunity to get an insight into our program in advance - free of charge! This time: "Peer Gynt", an opera by Jüri Reinvere, which will be premiered on May 3 in the main auditorium of the Stadttheater.

About the play:
The fear of missing out is more present than ever. Higher, faster, further. Better and better. More and more. We risk being lonely, losing community and a sense of belonging. And becoming egotists. This is exactly what happens to Henrik Ibsen's anti-hero Peer Gynt. He is a braggart whose search for fame, fortune and his own destiny only finds forgiveness and redemption in the love of a woman. The composer and librettist Jüri Reinvere formulates fundamental questions about identity and self-realization in a grand and touching musical language between romanticism and modernity. What does it really mean to be yourself?
