W.Hösl.jpg) Men don't fall in love with courtesans! That's the opinion of Alfredo's father after his son moves in with the mortally ill Violetta Valéry. In her love for Alfredo Violetta even agrees. She leaves him, dies poor, ill – still dreaming of the happiness of true love. One of Verdi's most beloved operas continues to hold the mirror up to society and its hypocritical morality. An exemplary production! See it!

Les Contes d'Hoffmann
 The protagonist of the opera is E.T.A. Hoffmann, the prototype of the German romantic period artist: his life is an artwork, his lower depths, his doubts, his grand inspirations – his crises. And all of these are connected with: women. Hoffmann in the opera tells of three types of woman in his tales, the “lifeless doll with a heart of ice”, the “virtuoso”, ill and destined to die, as well as the “shameless courtesan”.
Jacques Offenbach’s opera fantastique, premièred in 1881, is based on the play of the same name by Jules Barbier and Michel Carré, who drew from the biographies and works of E.T.A. Hoffmann, Adelbert von Chamisso and Alfred de Musset to create their own artist’s drama. It is not a literature opera – the protagonists from different romantic tales are connected to one another by a fictitious Hoffmann – but rather more of a message to the writer, telling him to make art his matter of the heart, or perhaps even open up his heart with brutal frankness.
Co-production with the English National Opera, London.
In French with German surtitles.

Frank Martin felt his "Le vin herbé" was a personal key work in which he had found his own voice. Based on the novel "Tristan et Iseut" by Joseph Bedier, he created his chambered profane oratorio to dramatise the two lovers Tristan and Isolde.

 Innovative opera based on Les Liaisons Dangereuses. After Quartett by Heiner Müller.
The Holland Festival 2013 opens with a tale of love, intrigue, heartbreak and torment. Based on Heiner Müller’s stage version of Les Liaisons Dangereuses, composer Luca Francesconi wrote an opera which had its world premiere in 2011 at Milan’s La Scala Theatre with a spectacular staging by Àlex Ollé.
On a stage that symbolises their emotional prison, Valmont and Merteuil fight their bitter, violent battles, a vocal duel interspersed with orchestral dreams of what could have been, but never will be. After all, the two former lovers not only play a deadly game with the hearts of others, with their cynical machinations they ultimately also condemn their own chances of happiness to failure.Co-production between Teatro alla Scala and Wiener Festwochen with IRCAM Paris.In English with Dutch surtitles. Running time 1 hour 20 minutes with no interval.Tickets €45/35/25 with students/CJP €17.50 for all categories.
