Fiszbein: L'Homme qui aimait les chiens (Live)

Inspired by Leonardo Padura's novel of the same name, L'Homme qui aimait les chiens juxtaposes the intertwined fates of Trotsky and his assassin Ramón Mercader, alias Jacques Mornard, brought together in a political tragedy that transcends their personal histories. With music by Fernando Fiszbein and a libretto by Agnès Jaoui, this operatic adaptation unfolds as an epic in which rhythms and languages intertwine, drawing on influences ranging from flamenco to mariachi sounds. Performed by the Court-Circuit ensemble, the score features contemporary composition, serving a narrative in which the characters' paths ultimately converge.
