WOZZECK
an opera by Alban Berg
"MORE than 80 years after its premiere in 1925, Alban Berg's expressionistic first opera, "Wozzeck," can still rattle an audience.

The atonal music keeps the ear alert and off balance, and the raw subject matter of a soldier driven to murder by his superiors' cruel treatment, a mad doctor's experiments and his common-law wife's betrayal continues to offend a sense of fairness and moral order. It's a work, in short, for our time.

San Diego Opera opened a four-performance run of "Wozzeck" — the first in the company's 43-year history — Saturday at the Civic Theatre.

Karen Keltner conducted a taut, 90-minute-plus performance without any intermissions.
