Drama! Tamerlano the Great
The Scourge of God
A battle between revenge and forgiveness burns in the soul of the title character, Tamerlano. Whether he is approached by an enemy or a friend, gentle sentiments seem to have little chance in Tamerlano's world of narcissistic megalomania.
As an exciting preview of the Festival Opera Tamerlano at the International Handel Festival 2025, the Junges Theater Göttingen is presenting a compact staged version of the opera libretto. This is an opportunity for all fans of Handel's music to experience the plot and text of the opera in advance.
Performed in the fascinating ambience of the “Salon” in the Forum Wissen, the dramatic plot revolving around power and abuse of power, amorous intrigue and the despair of the vanquished unfolds in concentrated form.
