CANCELED!

UNFORTUNATELY, WE MUST RESPOND TO CURRENT DEVELOPMENTS IN EUROPE AND ARE THEREFORE UNABLE TO HOLD THE PERFORMANCES AS PLANNED. IT IS NOT YET CLEAR WHETHER THE PROJECT CAN BE RESCHEDULED FOR A LATER DATE. WE WILL KEEP YOU INFORMED. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING.

Co-production / Revival of the world premiere production at the 2018 Bregenz Festival

Yasushi Inoue’s 1949 novel "The Hunting Gun" tells of conflicting emotions and hidden secrets. It reveals the loneliness of the hunter, whose hunting gun bears "the full weight deep in the soul and body of the lonely man" and radiates "a strange, bloodstained beauty." The first opera by Tyrolean composer and pianist Thomas Larcher, based on this bestseller, will be performed again in Amsterdam for the first time in the staging and cast of the 2018 Bregenz premiere, featuring SCHOLA HEIDELBERG.
