André de Ridder will undertake his debut conducting engagement as ENO’s Music Director Designate this February, in a powerful new production of Kurt Weill & Bertolt Brecht’s Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny.
The acclaimed conductor will take on this rarely performed political satire, known for its powerful depiction of hedonism and consumerist excess. The production will be directed by Jamie Manton, with a distinguished cast including internationally renowned soprano Danielle de Niese and mezzo soprano Rosie Aldridge.
