Michael Tilson Thomas leads an internationally renowned cast in Mussorgsky’s spectacular Russian opera, "Boris Godunov."
Inspired by Pushkin’s tragedy, the work follows the rise and fall of the 16th-century Tsar Boris Godunov in a story underpinned by ambition, power, and betrayal. Don’t miss this semi-staged event with original video projections, costumes, scenery, and lighting design that combine to bring Mussorgsky’s original orchestration to life.
The production features original lighting, projection, scenic and costume design conceived by the same world-class creative team that worked with MTT to produce "On The Town" in 2016 and "Peter Grimes" in 2014.
“I’m looking forward to this production, which will showcase the incredible artistry of the San Francisco Symphony, our esteemed soloists, and our remarkable design team and stage crew," said MTT.
The San Francisco Symphony (SFS) and Chorus will perform "Boris Godunov" with the Pacific Boychoir and an internationally-renowned cast on the following dates:
