Tchaikovsky: Child of Glass
Opera Holland Park, W8 6LU , [Venue Details]From the acclaimed team that brought you Beethoven: I Shall Hear in Heaven comes a blazing new music-drama about the life of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.
Nominated for an RPS Storytelling Award and hailed as ‘an explosion in the heavens,’ Tchaikovsky: Child of Glass brings to life with shattering immediacy all the pressures, passions, and conflicts that shaped Russia’s most celebrated composer and one of the world’s irreplaceable geniuses.
Born into a society that reviles and criminalises his nature, Tchaikovsky finds himself torn between public expectation and inner truth. Forever seeking to express his deepest feelings, yet haunted by the threat of condemnation and ostracism, music becomes Tchaikovsky’s refuge and sole avenue for self-expression. He fulfils himself by pouring out longing, anguish and ecstasy into compositions of breathtaking beauty—masterpieces that continue to move us to this day.
