The Enchantress

  • Because of a technical glitch, last month’s presentation of Tchaikovsky’s rarely performed opera “The Enchantress” ended before the final act and supplementary pieces could air. Because many of you let us know that you wanted to hear the end of the opera, we’re re-airing it on this week’s Sunday Opera. Enjoy!
  • When it comes to operas by Pyotr Tchaikovsky, works like “Eugene Onegin,” “The Queen of Spades,” and even “Mazeppa” may come to mind first. However, on this week’s opera (1/12 3:00 p.m.), we’ll be hearing an 1887 tragedy entitled “The Enchantress” where the heroine is one of those poor people who’s just in the wrong place at the wrong time, and because of the misplaced ire of another woman, is one of several people who dies.
