تدور الاوپرا حول الصراع بين العقلانية الإنسانية ويمثلها پنثيوس ملك طيبة، والعاطفة الإنسانية الجامحة ويمثلها الإله ديونيسوس.
خلفية
A noteworthy feature of the opera is its construction like a classical symphony in four 'movements':
- 'Movement I' = sonata form
- 'Movement II' = scherzo and trio
- 'Movement III' = adagio and fugue
- 'Movement IV' = passacaglia
Henze has noted that he quotes from Johann Sebastian Bach's St. Matthew Passion and the English Suite in D minor. Auden and Kallman wrote of changes that they made to the Euripides original for the purposes of this opera.
