At the interface of expressionism and bel canta, or Strauss' “Elektra” on the phase of the Cologne Opera

Soprany Allison Oakes and Magdalena Hinterdobler created delightful creations under Felix Bender's baton in the fresh production of Richard Strauss's “Elektra”. It is an exceptional opera that is considered a precursor work of expressionism and 1 of its best incarnations.
