Opera by Benjamin Britten

Conductor: Mark Wigglesworth
Director: Willy Decker
Stage design, costumes: Wolfgang Gussmann

"Evil knows about good, but good does not know about evil."
This quote from Franz Kafka would be an apt subtitle for Britten's Billy Budd. The satanic officer Claggart succeeds in making the angelic and therefore guileless sailor Billy Budd, who is loved by everyone, innocently guilty and thus destroyed.
