Programme Note:
The Danish chronicler Saxo's Amled myth lies behind the famous Hamlet by Shakespeare, the story about a heroavenging the murder of his father the king. Saxo depicts Amled as mad - but is Shakespeare's Hamlet mad, or is he playing a role? To test Hamlet, a 'date' is arranged with Ophelia.
Hellstenius has chosen toviewthings from her perspective and the opera begins at the moment when she drowns herself in the stream. We look back at her experiences - falling in love with the unstable Prince Hamlet; her anticipation of becoming a queen;their rendezvous in the forest, her ensuing pregnancy and his betrayal.
