Portland Opera Presents a Classic
Portland Opera presents Beethoven’s
first and only opera, Fidelio, a classic res­
cue story with breathtaking last-minute
liberation. Performances open Friday, Nov.
7 at Keller Auditorium with additional per­
formances on Sunday, Nov. 9 and Thurs­
day, Nov. 13 and Friday, Nov. 15.
Fidelio is considered a work o f great
beauty and signification, composed when
Beethoven was facing the agonies of los­
ing his hearing and when he longed to free
himself from the cage of deafness.
The work identifies strongly with the
ideas of faith, determination and the re­
ward of patience during a period of per­
sonal crisis. Fidelio’s score is a tribute to
freedom, fidelity and the indomitable hu­
man spirit.
