NZSO: Teddy Tahu Rhodes Tour - Series 1 - Dunedin

The New Zealand Symphony Orchestra live in concert with special guests: Bass-Baritone - Teddy Tahu Rhodes and Conductor - Pietari Inkinen.

The programme will include:
Verdi - Overture La Forza del Destino
Puccini, Bizet and Mozart Arias
Strauss - Don Juan and Till Eulenspiegel

Opera rubs shoulders with tone poems from Bavaria in Verdi’s - La Forze del Destino, forced to choose between her father and lover, the heroine suffers a tragic fate, foreshadowed in the dramatic overture by the use of the destiny theme. Richard Strauss’ Don Juan and Till Eulenspiegel in turn graphically portray well known rakishness and a prankster’s merry exploits. To complement the Verdi, the bass-baritone arias are in keeping with the drama of this programme.

Teddy Tahu Rhodes has rapidly established himself as an important rising star of the operatic world. He recently sang his first acclaimed Don Giovanni for Opera Australia,

There will be a free pre-concert talk with Elric Hooper on Strauss in the Fullwood Room of the Glenroy Auditorium at 5.45pm.

Tickets available from Ticketek.
