Elektra

Composer: Richard Strauss Librettist: Hugo von Hofmannsthal


Elektra feverishly awaits the return of her brother to avenge their father, who was slain years earlier by their mother and her new lover. Driven by an obsessive combination of rage and grief, Elektra feeds her thirst for revenge with primal single-mindedness in this ground breaking work of musical modernism presented by Canadian Opera Company.
