"Méditation" by Jules Massenet, played by Elisabeth Glass 2020 (Our favourites)
Channel: DeutscheOperBerlin
Date: 2020-05-19

Deep in the heart of Jules Massenet's opera THAIS, a musical reflection of the title role –  played by the solo violin – resounds: The courtesan hesitates whether she should really renounce the worldly with her cloister choice. At the same time, however, the monk who is talking into her conscience changes his mind and considers leaving the world of the monastery because of her. Back and forth or forth and back - there is a lot going on here emotionally, and you can hear that in "Méditation".

Experience the violinist and associate concertmaster of the orchestra of Deutsche Oper Berlin, Elisabeth Glass in this "Méditation", accompanied by Maxime Perrin on the piano. Introduction is spoken by dramaturge Lars Gebhardt.
