Omer Meir Wellber: “Polarization is so great that people prefer to be silent”

Viktor Ullmanns Emperor of Atlantis has been employed by the conductor Omer Meir Wellber for years. The chamber opera, whose performance series (around the international day of commemoration to the victims of the Holocaust, 27. 1.) invites you to the Volksoper, also has its development process for singing drama. Ullmann wrote this settlement with demagogy and murderous populism at the time of the delusion of extermination of the National Socialists between 1943 and 1944 in the Theresienstadt concentration camp. In October 1944 he was finally deported to Auschwitz and killed there.
