Die Entführung aus dem Serail - Premiere
Opera by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
In German with German surtitles
A work right in the middle of the conflict between Orient and Occident, man and woman, culture and nature, revenge and forgiveness. An opera about the clash of two different cultures, but from a shifted perspective, as Mozart researcher Volkmar Braunbehrens writes: "Europeans, forcibly held at the court of a Turkish ruler, experience a magnanimity of much higher morality than they know from their own European countries .”
With the new production of Mozart's Singspiel by the award-winning director Nurkan Erpulat, who was born in Turkey and came to Berlin as a student in the early 2000s, a new, authentic and, above all, direct look at this work is to be thrown at the Volksoper. The focus is also on the female characters: "Especially with regard to the female characters, there are a lot of questions of sexual morality, honor and loyalty," says the director. But in the interplay of historical and political discourse as well as painful poetry, the work for Erpulat always remains a comedy - a Singspiel, a "folk opera" in the best sense!
