Glyndebourne’s wartime history as a home for evacuee children is the ingenious context for a new production of this unclassifiable tale.
Ariadne auf Naxos
Glyndebourne
Opera
Amour, the messenger of the gods, tells Orpheus that he may descend to the underworld and return with Eurydice. His singing has the power to appease the Furies and animate the blessed Shadows. Yet, his voice cannot reassure Eurydice who despairs of the feigned indifference of Orpheus, put to the test by Jupiter.
