Dr Takt: Benjamin Britten A MIDSUMMER NIGHT´S DREAM (Videocast, Episode 18 / German language)
Channel: DeutscheOperBerlin
Date: 2021-09-25

On the occasion of the revival of Britten's A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM (30 Sept, 2/10/15 Oct 2021) Dr Takt reports again from his desk. This time he discovers curious constellations in the score: whether bitonal oscillations and atonal slipping or canonic variations and functional harmonies in E-flat and G-major – he seems to be well prepared in every case.

Dr Takt is our man behind music sheets. In his monthly videocast series, he investigates unique positions in opera music scores. Any questions to Dr Takt in particular? Write an Email to takt@deutscheoperberlin.de.
