Macbeth

TV MovieDrama

Schroeter’s ‘Macbeth’ merges Shakespeare’s tragedy with Verdi’s opera in a studio‑bound TV experiment shot with electronic cameras. He re‑scored Verdi for violin, accordion, piano and oboe, with Argentinian tango, bolero rhythms. The cast sings in harsh, shrill tones while vivid colours accentuate the performance. Audiences found presentation unsettling.
