Summary:
Berg's gripping score is masterfully brought to life by Music Director James Levine, a longtime champion of this groundbreaking opera. Alan Held gives a wrenching performance as the hapless soldier of the title, whose mind finally snaps under the relentless brutality of his life. Katarina Dalayman is his common-law wife, Marie, who can't resist the romantic lure of the handsome Drum Major (Clifton Forbis)--with tragic consequences. Graham Clark is the sadistic Captain and Eric Cutler sings Wozzeck's friend and fellow soldier, Andrés.
