  • The 2017/18 Season: 70 Years of the Komische Oper Berlin – 70 Years Of
    Press release | 30/3/2017 | acr | Updated: July 2017 The 2017/18 Season: 70 Years of the Komische Oper Berlin – 70 Years of the Future of Opera 10 premieres for this major birthday, two of which are reencounters with titles of legendary Felsenstein productions, two are world premieres and four are operatic milestones of the 20 th century. 70 years ago, Walter Felsenstein founded the Komische Oper as a place where musical theatre makers were not content to rest on the laurels of opera’s rich traditions, but continually questioned it in terms of its relevance and sustainability. In our 2017/18 anniversary season, together with their team, our Intendant and Chefregisseur Barrie Kosky and the Managing Director Susanne Moser are putting this aim into practice once again by way of a diverse program – with special highlights to celebrate our 70 th birthday. From Baroque opera to operettas and musicals, the musical milestones of 20 th century operatic works, right through to new premieres of operas for children, with works by Georg Friedrich Handel through to Philip Glass, from Jacques Offenbach to Jerry Bock, from Claude Debussy to Dmitri Shostakovich, staged both by some of the most distinguished directors of our time as well as directorial newcomers. New Productions Our 70 th birthday will be celebrated not just with a huge birthday cake on 3 December, but also with two anniversary productions. Two works which enjoyed great success as legendary Felsenstein productions are returning in new productions. Barrie Kosky is staging Jerry Brock’s musical Fiddler on the Roof , with Max Hopp/Markus John and Dagmar Manzel in the lead roles, and the magician of the theatre, Stefan Herheim, will present Jacques Offenbach’s operetta Barbe- bleue in a new, German and French version.

  • Between Stockhausen/Zimmermann and Eisler/Dessau: the Italian Composer Luca Lombardi in the Two Germanies
    Between Stockhausen/Zimmermann and Eisler/Dessau: The Italian Composer Luca Lombardi in the Two Germanies [with a list of selected works and writings] Cold War Divisions The Iron Curtain was not as ironclad as captured by Churchill’s colorful and certainly appropriate verdict, and the Berlin Wall—erected more than fifty years ago as the most visible and ominous piece of architecture of the Cold War—was not as impenetrable, as minefields, watch towers, self-shooting mechanisms, and the orders to kill trespassers implied. But the traffic was largely one-sided—from West to East. Visits to the “other” side largely depended on what kind of passport one happened to have. Living in Berlin (West) during the 1960s, I frequently crossed the checkpoint at the S- Bahnhof Friedrichstraße, exchanged the obligatory amount of D-Mark-West for D-Mark-Ost at the obligatory rate of 1:1, paid an additional administrative fee, waited in line (sometimes for an hour or more), until I was admitted to stand before a more or less unfriendly border guard to answer questions about the nature of my visit and, most importantly, whether I carried any printed matter—“brinted madder” in Saxonian dialect. Newspapers and books deemed unworthy of entry were submitted to a shredder. When I finally had passed all the hurdles to enter the capital of the DDR, I was indeed in a different country. It smelled differently: the disinfectant used there and brown-coal--burning stoves imbued the DDR with a distinct odor. The newspapers had entirely different headlines than those in the Western half of the city.
