Von Heute Auf Morgen on DVD

Performance of Arnold Schoenberg's opera at the Teatro La Fenice in Venice. The opera follows the exchanges of a husband and wife when they return from a party and reflect on their flirtations with various guests and the light this casts on the frustrations in their own relationship. The plot is based around a Husband and Wife (they are not given names) who reject opportunities for extramarital flings whilst at the same time attacking the superficiality of fashion. The main prop of Andreas Homoki’s vividly directed production is a white leather sofa, which, at the end with the Friend and the Singer on it, both of whom had tried to attract the attention of the Husband and Wife, the Husband and Wife push away. Frank Philipp Schlössmann’s décor also includes blackboard-like flats covered with words and figures, principally the word “modern” in various languages. Directed by Davide Mancini. Starring Michelangelo D'Adamo, Mathias Schulz, Brigitte Geller. Language: English Subtitles: French, English, German, Spanish, Italian
