Massenet: Thaïs
Artistic director of the Opéra de Montréal Bernard Labadie talks about Thaïs in an article at scena.org.
--- "Massenet's Thaïs -- about a Christian fundamentalist who sets out to save the soul of a prostitute, then finds his faith undermined by sexuality while she achieves sainthood -- is among the perviest of operas," wrote Tim Ashley in The Guardian, 29 November 2002.
