In the organizer's words:
by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Dramma per musica in three acts
Libretto by Giambattista Varesco
Fear of death is a bad advisor: on his return from Troy, Idomeneo swears to the god Poseidon that he will sacrifice the first person he meets - his son Idamante. He loves the Trojan prisoner Ilia, which sets a disastrous dynamic in motion. Mozart's "dramma per musica", first performed in 1781, depicts a world between cruel, archaic sacrificial logic and a new political beginning. At the end, Idomeneo abdicates and the next generation takes over. But how sustainable is this new beginning really?
