Andre­as Hotz is hono­u­red to make his debut with The Greek Pas­si­on by Mar­tinů at Den Jys­ke Ope­ra, Århus, Den­mark with three performances.

Mar­tinů’s The Greek Pas­si­on — an ope­ra about a refu­gee cri­sis and the rele­van­ce of Chris­ti­an values — is the most topi­cal ope­ra of our time. For­got­ten for deca­des, The Greek Pas­si­on is now being staged around the world, pro­ving once again that the ope­ra gen­re can help ask the most dif­fi­cult ques­ti­ons. In Danish Natio­nal Ope­ra’s pro­duc­tion, Mar­tinů’s over­whel­ming music, with its stun­nin­gly lar­ge cho­ral ele­ments, will also include real refu­gees, chal­len­ging the boun­da­ries bet­ween fact and fiction.

The Greek Pas­si­on, Mar­tinů Den Jys­ke Ope­ra (2024) bet­ween 23 — 27 August 2024 (3 performances).
