Sardanapalo, a 19th-century opera by Franz Liszt, will receive its world premiere in Weimar on 19 August 2018. The edition and orchestration (guided by Liszt's own indications) have been produced by David Trippett (University of Cambridge) over the course of three years. It follows a forensic re-examination of the manuscript, which had previously been considered fragmentary and often illegible. Kirill Karabits will lead the Staatskapelle Weimar, with soloists Charles Castronovo, Joyce El Khoury, and Olexandr Pushniak. Libretto reconstructed by Marco Beghelli with Francesca Vella and David Rosen.
