Petronius’ Satyricon II

Fri. 24 October 2014 20:30


Petronius, a member of Nero's court, portrays the debauchery of the Roman empire of his era with a provocative and satirical realism. His Satyricon provided the inspiration for Fellini's film of the same name. The well-known composer, Dimitris Papadimitriou, has selected key sections from the work and reworked them musically to create an ambitious work which verges on opera.
