Astor Piazzolla’s opérita María de Buenos Aires, with libretto by Horacio Ferrer, fuses opera, theatre and tango in a hallucinatory, fragmented dramaturgy that blurs dream and reality. Staged by Amélie Parias and musically led by William Sabatier (bandonéon), the production features Sol García (María), Diego Valentín Flores (Gorrion), Sebastián Ross (Duende), Quatuor Terpsycordes and a string ensemble (Girolamo Bottiglieri, Raya Raytcheva, Caroline Cohen-Adad, Florestan Darbellay). A poetic, sensual retelling of birth, fall and mythic rebirth, presented in coproduction with Negracha Productions and Nouvel Opéra de Fribourg.
