Event Description

Faust, the acclaimed opera by Gounod, will be performed by the talented group of young singers from Operísima México, under the direction of the internationally renowned Maestro Rogelio Riojas Nolasco. Experience a unique concert version that includes scenic movements that will bring you closer to the characters and the plot.

Faust is an opera in five acts composed by Charles Gounod, based on Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's literary work, Faust. The story follows Faust, a scholar who, unsatisfied with his life and desiring to regain his youth, makes a pact with Mephistopheles, the devil. In exchange for his soul, Faust is granted youth and power, and he falls in love with Marguerite, a young innocent woman. However, the pact leads to tragic consequences as Marguerite suffers the repercussions of Faust's actions. In the end, despite his mistakes, Faust seeks redemption, and the opera concludes with a divine intervention that grants him forgiveness.
