La sonata a Kreutzer
Tra Passione e Perdizione (Between Passion and Perdition)
Beethoven’s Kreutzer Sonata and Tolstoy’s text of the same name meet on the stage of Mittelfest. Gioele Dix leads us, with skill and dramaturgical intelligence, into the terrible and inhuman heart of a femicide, together with the music of Laura Marzadori’s solo violin and the ensemble I Solisti di Pavia. We will enter the meanderings of a psyche sick with jealousy and follow it to its extreme. A closer look into the dark corners of the present through the words and music of the Masters of the past.
In case of bad weather, the show will be held in Teatro Ristori
