Opera in analysis: Fidelio on the couch

This is a Dutch-only event. For more information, see the Dutch webpage here.

Nationale Opera & Ballet and Breukvlakken present the minisymposium Opera in analyse Fidelio op en naast de sofa.

The work on Fidelio caused Beethoven headaches. But what does this piece give us to think about? Breukvlakken and De Nationale Opera together dive into Beethoven’s grand liberation opera, currently showing at Nationale Opera & Ballet. What themes does the opera broach and what happens when we look at the work with a psychoanalytical view?
