Role : Onegin

"Eugene Onegin" is a renowned opera composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, based on the novel in verse by Alexander Pushkin. Premiered in 1879, the opera is a poignant exploration of love, regret, and the complexities of human emotion. Set in 19th-century Russia, it tells the story of the aristocratic and aloof Eugene Onegin, who rejects the sincere affections of the young Tatyana Larina. As time passes, Onegin realizes his mistake, but his newfound feelings come too late. The opera is celebrated for its lyrical beauty, rich character development, and Tchaikovsky's evocative score, capturing the essence of Russian romanticism.
