Mozart's "The Abduction from the Seraglio" at West Bay Opera
A fully-staged production of Mozart's "The Abduction from the Seraglio" set in the 1500's, with a top-notch cast, costumes, sets, orchestra and chorus. Belmonte, a rich Spaniard, sails to the Turkey of the Ottoman Empire to rescue his girlfriend Konstanze from a harem, where she is being kept after pirates raided her ship and sold her to Pasha Selim. This is Mozart's first big hit in Vienna, where the Emperor wanted to establish a German-language opera to curb the influence of Italian opera. Let Mozart's genius guide you through the cultural differences and show you how, in the end, it's our common humanity that saves the day. Sung in German, with projected English subtitles.
