Artists of the Primorsky Stage invite you to make a magic musical tour during Christmas holidays. On December 5 and December 6 Evening with Oscar Wilde will be performed in the Chamber Hall to transport you to winter London where the famous writer will tell you his fairy tales.
Evening with Oscar Wilde is a spectacular in which musical numbers are inscribed in plots of three stories. The main ideas of Oscar Wilde’s The Nightingale and the Rose, The Happy Prince and The Star Child were translated into music of various vocal and instrumental compositions. Among them there are the well-known Albinoni’s Adagio, Elegy by Massenet, Nemorino’s romance from the opera L'elisir d'amore, and Lullaby by Tchaikovsky. You will enjoy delicate French vocal miniatures by Debussy and Saint-Saëns, lieder by Schubert and Stöhr, salon pieces for strings by Kreisler and Vieuxtemps, and the touching Ave Maria by William Gomez, a contemporary Gibraltar guitarist.
Besides the storyteller Wilde, a hostess Elizaveta Sushchenko, opera singers and musicians, the festive atmosphere of the event is to be supported by a vocal quartet that will sing popular Christmas carols in four parts.
