Stock Photo - 06 July 2021, Brandenburg, Neuzelle: Actors practicing during a rehearsal for the opera ""Der Liebestrank"" by Gaetano Donizetti in a version by Wolfgang Böhmer in the Kreuzhof of Neuzelle Monastery. On 08.07.2021 the premiere of this opera will take place. Great Italian opera with everything that belongs to it! Forbidden and secret love, intrigue, rivalry and a real love potion. Nemorino loves Adina, but everything stands against this union. The modern dramaturgical garb of Opera Oder Spree 2021's production sums up the essence of the opera's five main characters without choruses or supporting characters. The modern orchestration, ten wind instruments develops a color all its own without neglecting the sonic splendor of late romantic compositions.
