Rusalka comes to London Coliseum Leaving your world for love can come at a terrible price.
Dvorák’s best-loved opera, Rusalka is inspired by myths and folk-tales about a water-nymph that chooses to become human to win her Prince. The opera displays Dvorák’s exceptional gift for melody and orchestration and features the beautiful aria ‘Song to the Moon’.

Both are making their ENO debuts.Leading the cast is Corinne Winters in the title role. She returns to ENO after her UK debut as Violetta in La traviata in 2013.
