Rusalka

ABOUT THE CONCERT

A mysterious lake, magical creatures and a longing for unattainable love. Dvořák’s Rusalka is one of the most significant works of Czech opera. In a concert performance by the Czech Philharmonic under the baton of Chief Conductor Semyon Bychkov, its fairytale world will come to life through the music and voices of leading opera singers. Soprano Ruzan Mantashyan will sing the title role, with David Butt Philip as the Prince.
