Britten - Death in Venice / Jenkins, Tear, Opie, Glyndebourne Opera Summary Death in Venice was Britten's final opera an extraordinarily atmospheric and haunting adaptation of Thomas Mann's novella, evoking the grandeur and shabbiness of a Venice in the grip of disease. He eloquently and evocatively describes the moral and physical degeneration of Aschenbach, the writer whose obsessive and self-devouring pursuit of beauty, in the form of a boy, Tadzio, leads him into humiliation and death. Robert Tear takes the central and demanding role of Aschenbach opposite Alan Opie, who sings the various baritone parts. To portray the beauty and fascination of the Polish family and Tadzio, Britten made prominent the use of dance, by turning these characters into dancers, choreographed in this production by Martha Clarke.This new production for Glyndebourne is directed by Stephen Lawless and conducted by Graeme Jenkins.
