  • A Pathbreaking and Splendid 'The Passenger' from Ubc Opera
    VANCOUVER HOME CALENDAR REVIEWS CLASSICAL MUSIC INTERVIEWS & ARTICLES ABOUT US A PATHBREAKING AND SPLENDID ‘THE PASSENGER’ FROM UBC OPERA Mieczysław Weinberg, THE PASSENGER: David Gibbons (Walter), Leila Kirves (Lisa), Catherine Thornsley (Marta), Luka Kawabata (Tadeusz), UBC Opera Ensemble, members of the Vancouver Opera Orchestra, David Agler (conductor), Nancy Hermiston (director), Alessia Carpoca (set design), Chan Centre, January 30, 2020. There are few neglected modern composers whose star has risen more in recent years than Polish/Russian composer Mieczysław Weinberg (1919-1996), a friend of Dmitri Shostakovich. Yet many opera companies would probably wish to stick to safer productions than to delve into the little-known world of the composer’s operatic ventures. Hat’s off therefore to the courage and vision of Nancy Hermiston and her fine UBC opera troupe in staging the composer’s powerful and original The Passenger (1967/68). The setting examined is both brutally painful and poignant: the concentration camps of World War II, where the ‘passenger’ embodies the haunting memories that everyone carries with them into the future, whether they be survivor or captor. Weinberg’s masterpiece has begun slowly making the rounds of international operatic stages and should take its rightful place alongside Shostakovich’s Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk and Prokofiev’s War and Peace as one of the great Soviet operas of the twentieth century. The commitment and intelligence of the present UBC student production served the composer admirably: the work emerges as positively shattering in its emotional force. Alexander Medvedev’s libretto is adapted from the radio play Passenger from Cabin 45 by Auschwitz survivor Zofia Posmysz, based on her own experiences during the Holocaust.
