Two cells in Sevilla : or: Don Quixote is hungry, op. 106 (2016) / words by Marec Béla Steffens (38:11) -- Five songs on Hölderlin : op. 95 (2008) / words by Friedrich Hölderlin (12:22) |
Summary |
An opera uniting two historical protagonists as multi-faceted as the music itself. The libretto, written by Steffens' son Marec Béla Steffens, fancifully merges the lives of Brother Gabriel Téllez, best known under his pen name Tirso de Molina as the inventor of the fictional womanizer Don Juan, and that of Miguel de Cervantes, the author of windmill-fighting Don Quixote |
