Adopted from Thomas Mann's 1912 novella, Death in Venice was Benjamin Britten's last opera. The starkly simple narrative of a famous novelist travelling to Venice to seek inspiration only to find unhealthy infatuation and deadly cholera, is given a chamber-like precision and clarity through Britten's score. This Teatro Real production by Willy Decker features John Daszak, Leigh Melrose and Tomasz Borczyk in starring roles. Aldo Perez conducts the chorus and orchestra.
