Date & Time
Mon, Nov 11, 2024, 19:00
In the 1769 Parma version of "Orfeo ed Euridice", Gluck offers no happy ending for Orpheus's journey to the underworld. World star Cecilia Bartoli, the captivating tragic heroine, comments, "So fate cannot be tricked." Her 2023 Salzburg Pfingstfestspiele performance, enriched with pieces from other versions, remains powerful in this concert format. Gianluca Capuano and "Les Musiciens du Prince" play historical instruments with breathtaking passion.
