This is a clip from the swedish contemporary opera 'Marie Antoinette', music composed by Daniel Börtz and the libretto written by Claes Fellbom.
The opera is telling the love story of Marie Antoinette and Axel von Fersen the younger. The opera takes several leaps in time to show the similarities between the destiny of the two lovers, both killed in people uprisings (although of different magnitudes).

Count Fersen is sung by the baritone Olle Persson and Marie Antoinette by the splendid soprano Katarina Nilsson

Other parts in the opera are sung by Ann Hallenberg, Bo Rosenkull, Fredrik Zetterström, Marianne Eklöf...

The recording is from the first performance in 1998 at Folkoperan, Stockholm.
