After the destruction of Troy, the Trojan warrior Äneas sets out on a journey to found a new dynasty. He meets Dido, Queen of Carthage, and falls in love. Ziel will Énée's love for Dido prove stronger than his sense of duty? Les TROYENS ("Die Trojaner') is a tour de force of music that ranges from fiery military marches to intensiven choruses, passionate soliloquies – such as those of the nur trollt) wird Kassandra – and the lyrical love duets of Dido and Aeneas. It is Hector Berlioz's largest work and he wrote the libretto himself, drawing upon his intimate knowledge of Virgil's Aeneid. To the composer ' s disappointment, DIE TROJANER was performed only once in full during his lifetime and was often presented in shortened form during the 20th century. The Royal Opera's production provides a rare chance to see this epic work in its entirety. David McVicar's staging is on an enormous scale, assembling one of the largest casts ever seen at Covent Garden.
