Intro
The Jewish Woman of Toledo – Making-of (1)
A visit to composer Detlev Glanert
We visited composer Detlev Glanert at his home in Berlin and take you back to the beginnings of the opera composition of the commissioned work »The Jewish Woman of Toledo«. The starting point is Franz Grillparzer's historical tragedy of the same name, which tells the forbidden love story between the Spanish King Alfonso VIII and his Jewish lover Rahel.
