Opera, English surtitles
Lead actors Paul Nilon (pictured) and Seth Carico reaped roaring applause at last month’s premiere of Death in Venice. Despite a rather one-dimensional production, the singers succeeded in capturing the audience throughout the three-hour opera based on the Thomas Mann tale of the same name.
A good 100 years ago, in the then still independent area of Charlottenburg, the Deutsche Oper was founded in the name of modern music theater, offering full visibility of the stage from every seat. The opera house stayed true to this tradition of citizenry when Fritz Bornemann's new building opened in 1961.
