Ariadne auf Naxos Opera Tickets

Experience a thought-provoking opera up close with Ariadne Auf Naxos tickets. Ariadne Auf Naxos was written by Richard Strauss in 1912, and is unique in that it deliberately combines low and high art elements to comment on the relationship between artists and the wider public. Strauss first composed the opera as a small piece meant to act as an intermission for larger plays and musicals. An early version of Ariadne Auf Naxos premiered at the Hoftheater Stuttgart in 1912. Strauss continued to develop the work, making substantial revisions equivalent to a rewrite in 1916. The second version is the one most widely known today, and premiered at the Vienna State Opera the year of the rewrite. It would continue playing at the opera house for over fifteen years.

Ariadne Auf Naxos centers around two groups of performers preparing to entertain a dinner party at the home of the richest man in Vienna. One group are comedians, and the other serious opera singers. They are told at the last minute that both groups must perform at the same time, as the dinner has taken longer than expected.
