(The Isle of Bliss)
Rosenberg, Hilding
The Isle of Bliss is that rare thing – a romantic opera from the modernist age, and a condensed synthesis of romantic poet Per Daniel Amadeus Atterbom’s fairy play from 1824. At a time when Europe is in the 20th century’s darkest hour, in the throes of the Second World War, Hilding Rosenberg writes an opera about utopias. Through it bursts Astolf on his winged horse Pegasus, heading for the magic isle of poetry and love, and the queen of his dreams: Felicia. This is No. 22 in the series Musica Sveciae Modern Classics. |
