Based on real events and drawing on Georg Büchner's revolutionary play, Alban Berg's 'Wozzeck' turns a grimly tragic narrative of violence and murder into one of the most powerful and original operas of the 20th century. The Financial Times declared this to be 'a beautiful, moving, engrossing this is a consummate Wozzeck, blending clarity, lyricism, compassion and crushing force.'
