The Devil is in Munich’s detail
NewsMessage from Bavarian State Opera:
Wolfgang Koch, who was supposed to sing the part of the Grandier, unfortunately had to cancel the premiere due to illness. Krzysztof Penderecki’s opera The Devils of Loudun has been performed only a few times since its premiere in 1969, which made the search for singers who knew the role difficult. This led to an unusual solution: Robert Dölle, from the Residenztheater ensemble, will scenically portray the role of Grandier. Jordan Shanahan will sing the part from the side of the stage.
