People behind the production

Der Kaiser Von Atlantis is an innovative performer who brings Viktor Ullmann’s one-act chamber opera to life with a modern, cross-genre sensibility. Created from the wartime roots of Ullmann’s score and Peter Kien’s libretto, this performer weaves cabaret, jazz influences, and traditional opera textures into a distinctive presentation. The project has seen revivals across Europe and North America, with recent studio recordings and high-profile performances setting the stage for a dynamic 2025 tour.

People behind the production

About the performer: Der Kaiser Von Atlantis channels the spirit of Ullmann’s subversive yet lyrical score—an eclectically styled work composed in Theresienstadt (1943) and completed post-war for performance. The world premiere occurred on December 16, 1975, with De Nederlandse Opera in Amsterdam, and since then the piece has seen notable revivals across Europe and North America. The musical language embraces cabaret tones, jazz flavors, and traditional opera textures, with historical instrumentation that occasionally features harmonium and banjo, expanding the sonic palette beyond standard orchestration.
