Claude Debussy's only opera, which brilliantly conveys a dark, otherworldly mysteriousness through its breathtakingly beautiful music, tells the story of two young lovers who are tragically torn apart.Pelleas and Melisande fall deeply in love, but their union is doomed by the anger and vengefulness of the aging Golaud, Melisande's estranged husband.Pierre Strosser's highly original interpretation strips the masterpiece from its usual mythical setting and uses intimate camerawork to emphasize the tension and drama in this striking version of "Pelleas et Melisande."John Eliot Gardiner conducts the Orchestra of the Opera National de Lyon.
