요약 | Britten's opera Peter Grimes is based on George Crabbe's horrifying poem The Borough about early 19th century Aldeburgh, a North Sea fishing town in East Anglia. Its premiere at Sadlers Wells in 1945, shortly after VE Day, was a landmark moment in British operatic history. Britten's partner Peter Pears? like Britten a pacifist and conscientious objector? was in the title role. Britten and Pears, together with Montagu Slater, a communist journalist, created the libretto. Grimes, a fisherman and sadistic child abuser, is a loner longing for social acceptance, and the wealth to marry the retired. |
