About

Wilhelm Kienzl’s “Der Evangelimann”, written in 1895, is carefully modernised in this production in order to let the story of two hostile brothers emerge even more dramatically.
 
In addition to the lay preacher’s famous song “blessed are those who are prosecuted”, this opera, which after 1950 fell pretty much into oblivion, also contains many gripping scenes.
 
Oper in Wien said of this production “…A successful revival – vigorous signs of life from a new Volksoper production of Kienzl’s Evangelimann. The applause at the end of the evening showed unanimous agreement.”
