Royal Theatre: opera based on the text by Pushkin ‘The Golden Cockerel’

May 25, 2017
in Entertainment, Leisure

 

Until 9 June, the Royal Theatre will offer 9 performances of The Golden Cockerel, by Nikolái Rimski-Kórsakov (1844-1908), co-produced by the National Opera of Lorraine and the Theatre of La Monnaie of Brussels, where the opera premiered in December 2016 with great success.

 

The piece, based on the homonymous fable by Aleksandr Pushkin (1799-1837) ─which was inspired by one of the Tales of the Alhambra by Washington Irving (1783-1859)─ is a bitter satire on the arbitrary acts of tyrants, the abuse of power and the conformism of those subjugated, but it is also a sarcastic self-criticism to the Russian musical nationalism of the end of the 19th century.
