La damnation de Faust - CANCELLED | Hector Berlioz
The show has been cancelled: here all news.
The triumph of the demonic but also the wonder of magic, of female enchantment, and of the sense of panic of nature. A mosaic of impressive musical richness that treats the Faustian myth without mediation, with a revolutionary dramaturgy, and a ruthless epilogue.
