Dmitry Shostakovich’s Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk is unquestionably one of the greatest operas of the 20th century. This new production, filmed at the Gran Teatre del Liceu in Barcelona, is part of the new "EMI Classics Opera on DVD" series, which presents first-class productions from the great opera houses of the world. Featured in this production are Nadine Secude (Katerina Ismailova), Christopher Ventris (Sergey), and Anatoli Kotxerga (Boris Ismailov), conducted by Alexander Anissimov with the Symphony Orchestra and Chorus of the Gran Teatre del Liceu. Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk received its premiere at the Maly Theatre in Leningrad in 1934. The libretto, written by Shostakovich himself and Alexander Preys, is based on Nicolay Leskov’s novella of 1865.
