Idomeneo, King of Crete
The three-act "Idomeneo, King of Crete" opera seria, composed with a libretto by Giambattista Varesco, is a spectacular work where young Mozart elevates the roles of ballet, orchestra, and choir. Director and choreographer Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, alongside Luxembourg Philharmonic conductor Fabio Biondi, delivers a groundbreaking staging combining singing, dance, and visual arts. This rendition explores the myth of Idomeneo, a king compelled to sacrifice his son to honor a pledge to Neptune, reflecting on timeless universal themes.
