Ottorino Respighi’s ‘mystery in three episodes’, Maria
Egiziaca, started out as a concert triptych. Its intensely
dramatic and at times symphonic qualities give it a
character somewhere between an oratorio and an
opera. Based on the life of Saint Mary of Egypt, the
archaic story of Maria egiziaca revolves around faith seen
through its various characters, with Maria’s journey from
prostitution to sainthood conveyed as an expressive and
eloquently immediate musical fresco. This Teatro La
Fenice production of Respighi’s profoundly moving and
deeply sensuous stage work was critically acclaimed.
