Peter Eötvös- Three Sisters [b][i]This was a continuous broadcast on BBC Radio 3. I have split the recording into its acts (re-encoded from .m4a to 320kbps .mp3) and the commentary (encoded into 96kbps .mp3)[/i][/b] Peter Eötvös's opera Three Sisters was recorded in March 2016 at the Vienna State Opera. Based on the play by Chekhov, the opera explores the complex love conflicts of three sisters in the Prozorov family, set in an oppressing Russian provincial atmosphere at the beginning of the 20th century. Departing from Chekhov, Eötvös divides the piece into three sequences, each representing the same events as seen by three different characters. Eötvös adds to the psychological tension of Chekhov's drama by providing a back-stage orchestra which complements a smaller ensemble in the pit. In the title roles are the soprano Aida Garifullina as Irina and mezzo-sopranos Margarita Gritskova as Mascha and Ilseyar Khayrullova as Olga. The chorus and orchestra of the Vienna State Opera are conducted back-stage by Jonathan Stockhammer, while the composer himself directs the ensemble in the pit. Presented by Christopher Cook.
