Summary
Welsh National Opera performs Bartók’s Bluebeard’s Castle and Stravinsky’s Oedipus Rex as a double bill at the Wales Millennium Centre.
Why it's fantastic
This pairing brings together two psychological heavyweights, moving from the dark mystery of a hidden chamber to a monumental ancient tragedy. You can expect a deep dive into human obsession through music that feels both hauntingly intimate and incredibly powerful, all within a compact two-hour sitting.
