Weinberg's The Passenger
Presented by Andrew McGregor

Although Mieczyslaw Weinberg finished his opera The Passenger in 1968, it was banned in the USSR and never performed in the composer's lifetime.
Only last year did it receive a full staging, when David Pountney directed it at last year's Bregenz Festival, 14 years after Weinberg's death.

A chance encounter between two women travelling at sea - one a former Auschwitz guard, the other ("The Passenger") a former prisoner - triggers memories which plunge them into a moral battle between guilt and denial, retribution and absolution.

Recorded at the 2010 Bregenz Festival.
