Description

What Carl Orff created with the Prometheus score is neither an opera in the traditional sense nor an oratorio, but also not a play with music or even "authentic" classical tragedy: far more is it an extremely individual musical interpretation of Aeschylus's tragedy that concentrates primarily on the symbolic imagery of the scenes, which - as Orff himself said - "is accentuated and visualized by the music" and the spectator and hearer thereby enlightened. Sung in Ancient Greek, the booklet contains a plot synopsis in English and German language plus liner notes.
