Jacques Offenbach's Opéra bouffe with the legendary "Hell Cancan" is one of the greatest stage hits of all time. The NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra brings "Orphée aux enfers", the satire of the Greek myth of Orpheus, to the stage of the Elbphilharmonie with the NDR Vokalensemble, a magnificent line-up of soloists and Marc Minkowski conducting.
A recording from December 31, 2023.
