King Roger (Opera Australia)

Watching his wife dance under the stranger’s spell, King Roger struggles with his own passions: choosing between the sacred love he knows and the sensuous, glittering realm of hedonism the shepherd preaches. Szymanowski’s intoxicating, iridescent music, is rarely heard on the opera stage, so don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to hear a 20th-century Polish masterpiece.
