Alan Gilbert conducts Kungliga Hovkapellet when Elektra returns to the Royal Swedish Opera, with a wonderful cast including Katarina Leoson as Klytaemnestra, Christina Nilsson as Chrysothemis, Jeremy Carpenter as Orest, Jonas Degerfeldt as Aegisth and Miriam Treichl as one if the maids. Elektra is playing from 4 October to 16 October 2023.

"Richard Strauss stuns the audience with his hair-raising drama about Elektra, obsessed with avenging her father’s murder. This production is by Staffan Valdemar Holm, who has also directed the award-winning Der Ring des Nibelungen at the Royal Swedish Opera. Conducted by the Royal Swedish Opera Music Director Alan Gilbert."
