Opera Ballet Vlaanderen will revive Luigi Nono’s groundbreaking opera Intolleranza 1960 at the Opera Gent in Ghent, Belgium, from May 6 to May 18, 2025. This powerful production, directed by Benedikt von Peter and conducted by Stefan Klingele, immerses audiences in a visceral exploration of oppression, resistance, and human dignity.
Composed in the aftermath of World War II, Intolleranza 1960 follows the journey of a migrant worker confronting systemic violence and injustice. Nono's avant-garde score and politically charged libretto resonate deeply in today's socio-political climate, making this revival both poignant and relevant.
Experience this compelling opera that challenges and engages, offering a profound reflection on the enduring struggles for justice and humanity.
Tickets for Intolleranza 1960 are available through the Opera Ballet Vlaanderen's official channels.
