Synopsis
Product Description
The Sacrifice, described by The Scotsman as 'a powerful and evocative piece of music' is a compelling and timeless story of a ruler's ultimate sacrifice to safeguard the future of his war-torn, faction-ridden country; a story of love, revenge and reconciliation, inspired by the heightened mythical world of The Mabinogion, a collection of ancient Welsh folktales. With hints of Tippett, Berg, Strauss and the film music of Bernard Herrmann this opera truly evokes the late romantic idiom, with a twenty-first century twist.
