A Concert in Hologram
Have you ever wished that artistic legends were immortal? Have you ever dreamt of travelling back in time to see them perform while they were still alive?
On the 100th anniversary of her birth, the legendary soprano Maria Callas, la Divina, returns to the stage with the help of hologram technology to perform some of her most emblematic arias for West Australian audiences.
Pathos, anger, passion: Callas could express every emotion, which made her one of the greatest singing actresses of all-time. Experience the artistry and the intense emotional force, as she inhabits famous roles from masterpieces of Bizet, Verdi, Puccini and more with passionate heat, heart-rending vulnerability, and fierce confidence.
The seamless melding of state-of-the-art 3D hologram technology, the greatest of Callas' digitally remastered recordings, and a live quartet, brought to Perth by the European Union for a one-night-only concert experience, promises to be an evening to remember.
