| Boston Center for the Arts: The Calderwood Pavilion, Boston, MA, 527 Tremont Street, Boston, 02116, United States Tuesday 1-Feb-11 07:30pm Viktor Ullmann’s The Emperor of Atlantis, or Death Quits An emperor unleashes total war. He orders destruction. He orders death. But Death…Well, Death doesn’t take orders. Now what? In 1943, composer Viktor Ullmann and poet Petr Kien were prisoners in the concentration camp Terezin, where they created this almost inconceivably wry and touching opera. They died at Auschwitz. Their opera survives—an allusive, haunting, texturally rich testament to their spirit. The performance will include the world premiere of a prologue, composed by Richard Beaudoin, and specially commissioned by Boston Lyric Opera. Music by Viktor Ullmann | Libretto by poet Petr Kien | Sung in English BLO premiere and new BLO production BLO’s Opera Annex is a fully staged production designed for an alternative space outside the traditional opera theater.

Also her husband, current emperor Claudius. The numbers are staggering. No, really. Handel’s music soars. Come delight in his fresh musical invention and some crazy, hothouse humanity.
