Octavia. Trepanation
Октавия. Трепанация
The premiere took place as part of the main program of the 70th anniversary running of the Holland Festival in June 2017 on the stage of Muziekgebouw, Europe’s largest platform for the performance of contemporary music.
"Octavia. Trepanation" is a musical reflection on the theme of violence and tyranny. An opera directed by Boris Yukhananov and composed by Dmitri Kourliandski is based on a 1924 essay by Leon Trotsky about Lenin and fragments of a play attributed to Seneca about the Roman emperor Nero.
