Menotti: Amahl and the Night Visitors

Premiered in 1951, 'Amahl and the Night Visitors' was the first opera specifically composed for television. The magical story tells of Amahl, a disabled boy who befriends the Three Kings. Amahl decides to give his crutch to Jesus, at which point his leg is miraculously healed. This new production, sung in German, re-examines the story with fantasy, empathy and the enduring power of love.
