Description:
This Wagner opera is rarely performed due to controversy surrounding its 1836 premiere as "The Novice of Palermo," a production that became known as cursed and one the composer later disavowed. Wagner's adaptation captures the rebellious spirit of Revolutionary Germany, championing passionate love and challenging the oppressive suppression of sexuality by a hypocritical authority. As the text states, "Shame to him whose cruel striking/Kills for faults of his own liking!" Considered one of the most remarkable musicals based on a Shakespearean work, it deserves renewed attention four hundred years after the playwright's death.
