Summary
The Royal Ballet and Opera performs Richard Strauss’s tragedy Elektra at the Royal Opera House.
Why it's fantastic
Richard Strauss wrote this score with such visceral intensity that the orchestra often feels like a character itself. Christof Loy directs this revival, focusing on a family consumed by a relentless need for vengeance that pushes the boundaries of what a human voice can achieve on the lyric stage.
