A New Opera about Marie-Antoinette

 


 

Here is the overture to the opera "Last Letter of Marie-Antoinette" by Hungarian composer Márton Wirth. It will debut this fall. I had the honor of writing the libretto. 

And here is a portrait of the young queen from 1775 by Jean-François de Sompsois, via East of the Sun, West of the Moon.
