Romantic love, or security? Life at the side of the wealthy Geronte would offer the beautiful Manon Considered Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s most ground-breaking opera, Idomeneo is probably also his most personal work, with the conflict between the patriarchal system and young love reflecting the composer’s endeavour to break away from his overbearing father Leopold. Our new production, directed by Calixto Bieito and conducted by Konrad Junghänel, will receive its first performances on 25 and 28 September 2025 at the State Opera in Prague.
