opera stream alert!
What: Ambroise Thomas: Hamlet, Paris 2019
When: Sunday, January 7, at 19:00 CET (18:00 UCT, 13:00 EST)
Where: Kosmi – I will post a link before we start!
Who: everyone is welcome!
Extra info: It's Hamlet, it's about Hamlet. Murder! Step-parents! Flowers! This opera has it all. It also features some excellent music, in this case performed by Stéphane Degout and Sabine Devieilhe, some of my favorite singers in the world. Both the opera and this specific staging have a bit of a twist ending for Shakespeare fans.
