The enig­mat­ic pro­tag­o­nist of Maeterlinck’s Pelléas et Mélisande suf­fers from an unfath­omable sad­ness. Claude Debussy trans­formed this sym­bol­ist mas­ter­piece into a flu­id and pic­to­r­i­al opera, mean­der­ing like musi­cal fil­i­gree. The serene cham­ber ver­sion by Marius Constant is giv­en sec­ond life, ignit­ed by Jan Michiels, Inge Spinette, and an all-star line-up of vocal­ists sur­round­ing Lore Binon.
