Bluebeards Castle: by Bartok

This opera I saw paired with Erwatung since both are short one act operas. The theme is really creepy and the lady had to be an idiot to think that this guy is worth marrying but that is just me. Without that dynamic there would be no opera.

Pros: Astounding music. Very reminiscent of Alfred Hitchcock horror shows and scary movies. It kept you on the edge of you chair knowing that something very, very bad was going to happen to this new bride.

Cons: By the time you hit the seventh door it feels a bit redundant but that is ok.

Must See Rating: ****
