Salzburg Festival 2025: Oedipus Rex

The stellar cast includes Allan Clayton, Marina Viotti, Michael Volle and Academy Award winner Christoph Waltz, who “performs this speaking role with subtle restraint” (BR Klassik). The concert also features Berlioz’s Symphonie fantastique “in a performance where everything is just right” (Der Standard). PROGRAM Stravinsky: Oedipus Rex; Berlioz: Symphonie fantastique
