Bregenz Festival: Nerone

Roman emperor Nero, the colourful character in Arrigo Boito’s lavish opera, makes his appearance at the Festspielhaus: The spectacular self-staging of his power contrasts with pangs of remorse he feels after murdering his mother. Begun in 1862, Boito strived to complete the piece for several decades. Only after his death did Arturo Toscanini create a performable version, whose world premiere took place at La Scala in 1924. The Wiener Symphoniker perform “Nerone” under the baton of Dirk Kaftan and “the ensemble of singers leaves nothing to be desired and plunges boldly into the sound waves”, as the Deutschlandfunk wrote.
