Elektra /

Show other versions (8)

One-act opera based on the Greek tale of Klytemenestra, who is suffering under the guilt of murdering her husband Agamemnon; her nearly-insane daughter Elektra, and her son Orestes. The music is very effective in bringing the protagonsists' psychological torment to the surface.
