About this product
Sergey Prokofiev's operatic tragedy The Fiery Angel was never performed in the composer's lifetime - the music's brittle energy, drama and eloquent lyrical tenderness would re-emerge in his Third Symphony. The narrative focuses relentlessly on Renata, who is haunted by an angel who turns out to be the devil. Director Emma Dante describes the opera as an explosive mix of fantastical realism and endless confusion of nightmares, madness, sexual impulses and cultural clashes', and this Teatro dell'Opera di Roma production was acclaimed as 'a presentation of Prokofiev's masterpiece which sparkles in all it's grotesque glory' (operawire. Com).

Renata is obsessed with the love for the Inchfiery angelInch. Ruprecht, in love with Renata, wants to free her from the madness, but all his efforts are in vain. She goes to the monastery, but here too she is being haunted by the image of the fiery angel. The Inquisition accuses Renata of witchcraft and sentences her to death. Prokofiev's Fiery Angel is one of the outstanding operas of the 20th century.
