The next destination of Symphonic Hit with Goran Gora transports us into the realm of opera music, a world profoundly shaped by the scores (and literary works) of the 19th‑century German opera revolutionary Richard Wagner. His innovations profoundly influenced the role of the orchestra in this genre, with instrumental parts adorned by intricate leitmotifs, vividly portraying operatic characters, heroes, and moods. Love him or loathe him, Wagner was one of the top cultural influencers of his time. Goran Gora will delve deeper into the story behind the opera genius and his works, narrated in music with opera overtures and symphonic excerpts – no arias this time.
