Madame Flora is terrified when she perceives a supernatural presence during one of her fraudulent séances. Menotti's first international success is a tragedy in two acts for five singers and a dance-mime role. Premiered on Broadway, the opera is eerie, dissonant and morbid ennobled by melodies of profound beauty.

A small, isolated Russian town on the banks of the ever-present Volga River reveals a repressive society in which rules and appearances are all that matter. Unhappily married in a household dominated by a bitter and controlling matriarch, a threatening storm leads all to a tragic resolution and freedom.
