Prelude

 

 

On the 14th of November 2020 the conductor Alexander Mottok will start the opera the same way all opera performances start: The raising of his baton. He will do so on the highest point of St. Katharinenchurch- high above the city of Hamburg- a city that is the stage for this opera performance: a performance that will last just under five months.

In May 2022 he will return to the same site. Only this time he will be standing about a hundred meters further down and surrounded by a full orchestra, singers and- hopefully- an audience.
