Iolanta - Bordeaux Opera house (2025) - Iolanta - Opéra National de Bordeaux (2025)

Description

New production.

Stéphane Braunschweig's production plays with light to create an initiatory journey full of poetry. "If Iolanta ends with a gaze turned towards the celestial vault and a song of glory to the divine light," writes Stéphane Braunschweig, "should we not also see in the exaltation of the final communion a reconciliation with the world, or a desire for reconciliation with the world? In my opinion, this is what gives all its depth to this opera which, beneath its apparent simplicity, conceals the dazzling beauty of masterpieces."
