Presented by Sonic Seducer:It is going to be a huge premiere of something entirely new: "Rappacinis Tochter" (Rappacini's Daughter), the first gothic musical ever will have it's world-premiere on January 24th at Delphi Showpalast in Hamburg (known by a recent undercover concert by Nightwish). The music has been written by Alexander Hunzinger and the band Aeternitas, known by their releases Requiem (2000) and La Danse Macabre (2004).
For their latest production they chose to join forces with Sandra M. Heinzelmann to create the story based on a gothic-novel by Nathaniel Hawethorne and stage the scenes starring the band and additional singers. During 2007 the team was expanded by a costume designer, a stage designer and a make-up artist to complete the musical production.
The story is about young and desperate Giovanni who was forced to enroll at Padua university. He accidentally discovers his neighbour's beautiful daughter and falls in love. The mysterious girl has a dark secret and she lives hidden in the house of her father Dr. Rappacini. But Giovanni is not willing to give up and asks his fatherly professor Baglioni for help...
