True to its policy to update and renew its repertoire, the Teatro Colón presents one of the most significant creations of recent times: Quartett, by Italian composer Luca Francesoni, a disciple of Berio and Stockhausen, and a remarkable innovator of the tools capable of transforming the art of sound. In Quartett, the enthralling story of Les liaisons dangereuses (Dangerous Liaisons) is presented as an opera in a production by Teatro Alla Scala a Milano.
