The tragedy of the missed moment

Eugene Onegin

Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky
©
With stunning natural imagery and attention to every detail, Barrie Kosky presents Tchaikovsky’s soulful drama about the hopes, longings, and failures of four young people who come to realize in the end that happiness was almost within reach.
Act 1

An idyllic summer’s day in the depths of the Russian countryside; people are doing the kind of things people do on such days. Among country folk on an outing, the estate owner Larina is chatting with her long-serving domestic Filipyevna, the nurse of her daughters Olga and Tatyana. The two elderly women are making jam and reminiscing about past hopes of love and getting used to disappointment. Larina’s daughters sing a song full of yearning.
