Eberhard Kloke’s new arrangement of Lulu for chamber orchestra – including his new version of the third act – is given its world première in Giessen tomorrow night.
The smaller orchestration opens up Berg’s masterpiece to smaller theatres and stages that previously struggled with the size of the orchestra.
Stefan Herheim's production of Lulu, first seen in Copenhagen last autumn, now comes to the Norwegian Opera in Oslo.
The production includes the new realisation of the third act by Eberhard Kloke.
Opening night is 16 February.
Video excerpts from the Copenhagen production:
The German première of the new third act will be given in Erfurt this June.
