Opera King Priam by Sir Michael Tippett as performed here in Rotterdam, Netherlands

Some shots taken of the performance of King Priam, modern opera composed by Sir Michael Tippett.
I am so sorry not to have set the ISO number higher (only 160 now), therefore the photos are darker then I usually make them.

Go for the official web page of sir Michael Tippet for:
