OpernSalon - Wozzeck

About this Event

A baroque suite, a sonata movement, an entire symphony, inventions on key, rhythm, and even a single note, military music, a dance band, natural sounds like Mahler's, a double fugue with whistled counterpoint, lullabies, hunting songs, a fast polka on the ship's piano - Alban Berg packs all this and much more into the only 90-minute opera Wozzeck, which premiered at the Berlin State Opera exactly 100 years ago.
