Wozzeck (Three Fragments)

Composer: Alban Berg

Performer: Claire Booth (Soprano)

Date of broadcast: 10 January 2018

Berg's opera is a terrifying vision of repression and reaction. The harshness of the music exactly reflects the brutality of the story: the cruel treatment of a returned soldier - Wozzeck - by his superiors and, as a consequence, his violent murder of his wife. Not for the faint-hearted.
