El Nino: John Adams: Kent Nagano

An Opera by John Adams

The world premiere production from the Theatre Musical de Paris-Chatelet.

John Adams new work El Nino, he has said "my own version of The Messiah." Like Handel's Messiah, El Nino tells the story of Jesus, Mary and Joseph through a sequence of separate numbers, shifting between narration and reflection, but always through the image of modern-day Marys.
