Erfopvolging

The Dutch constitution stipulates that the monarchy is hereditarily fulfilled by the legal successors of King Willem I. Fast Opera Productions was inspired by this and created this fast opera on the occasion of the inauguration of the future King Willem-Alexander. "The path is paved, there is no way out". 'Hereditary Succession' is the 9th online fast opera by Fast Opera Productions (FOP).

NEDERLANDS

In de Nederlandse grondwet is vastgelegd dat het koningschap erfelijk wordt vervuld door de wettige opvolgers van Koning Willem I. Fast Opera Productions liet zich hierdoor inspireren en maakte deze fast opera ter gelegenheid van de inhuldiging van toekomstig Koning Willem-Alexander. "Het pad ligt geplaveid, geen weg eruit". 'Erfopvolging' is de 9e online fast opera van Fast Opera Productions (FOP).

REVIEW

“In a[nother] video, Erfopvolging (Throne Succession), composer Edward Top gives the commedia harmonica a face-lift. This ancestral mother of opera is a polyphonic hymn about life and love and was performed as a musical sketch in estates and palaces. In Erfopvolging the elegant music room has given way to a foot-ferry, a high wall where they hang out, and a church where autumn leaves swirl at the feet of the singers.” Martin Kaaij, VPRO gids, Vrijdag etalagen 7 juni 2013.
