Massenet's masterpiece "Werther" will be performed at the New National Theatre Opera Palace under the exquisite direction of Andriy Yurkevich. In this performance in four acts in the original French with Japanese and English subtitles, lyric tenor Charles Castronovo makes his long-awaited New National Theatre debut, and a splendid cast including Aya Wakizono vividly engraves the poetic sentiment of tragic love. Beautiful and dramatic arias such as Charlotte's "Song of Letters" and Werther's "Ossian's Poem" are spun with colorful music on stage, deeply moving the audience's heart. The magnificent sounds of the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra and the New National Theatre Chorus promise a moment that will fill all five senses.
