Rusalka 2
Described by many as the most famous and loved of the Czech operas, Antonin Dvorák’s Rusalka returns to the Gran Teatre del Liceu for a handful of performances.
Rusalka is the symbolic tale of a water nymph who chooses to become human and sacrifice her life for love, which leads to terrible consequences. A tragic love story with an exquisite musical score, featuring ballads alongside traditional Czech melodies, the opera is divided into three acts and lasts approximately 3 hours and 25 minutes.
The opera was first performed at the National Theatre in Prague in 1901, and has a long-held connection with the Liceu, which first showcased the opera in 1924. The return of the Rusalka promises to recreate the original and enchanting magic of decades ago.
More information regarding dates and times of the performances can be found here, and tickets can be purchased here and here, as well as the Liceu box office on C/ Sant Pau, 1.
