LE TROUVÈRE Comes To Opera National De Paris Through 7/14 The Opera National de Paris is presenting LE TROUVÈRE, an opera in four parts, running from June 20 to July 14.

How does one approach LE TROUVÈRE - the most popular opera of its day and a swashbuckling tale of love and death over which looms a gypsy's curse - without singing one's wings in the flames of its flamboyantly extravagant plot? For this work sums up the magic of opera, the way in which a dense and complex libretto abounding in dramatic twists can be transcended by the vertiginous beauty of a vocal line.

Àlex Ollé transposes the drama to a furious war that sets brother against brother: suddenly night, castles, soldiers, eternal hatred and the stake all become realities.
