Debussy’s beautiful opera is at once intensely lyrical and erotic. A prince marries a mysterious young woman he finds in the forest, but she falls in love with his brother, Pelléas, with fatal consequences. Director David Alden makes his OTSL debut, OTSL music director Stephen Lord conducts, and the Salome trio of Kelly Kaduce, Maria Zifchak, and Gregory Dahl returns for OTSL’s first-ever Pelléas.

All operas sung in English and performed with members of the famed Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra.
