Elektra
Grief turns into a violent quest for revenge. Christof Loy’s nuanced contemporary production returns for its first revival since its 2024 premiere, with Ausrine Stundyte in the murderous title role. Conductor Semyon Bychkov draws out the fierce drama of Strauss’s menacingly modern music. Richard Strauss’s audacious adaptation of an iconic Greek tragedy.
