Scene from: Rodelinda

Composer: George Frederic Handel
Conductor: William Christie

Rodelinda is considered by many experts and aficionados of Handel's music to be one of his greatest operas, containing music of astonishing power and beauty. Jean-Marie Villégier's stylish production for Glyndebourne sets Handel's tale of royal exile and fidelity in the silent movie era. The composer's ravishing music is perfectly set off by the sophisticated glamour and visual daring that characterised the birth of cinema.
William Christie conducts the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment.

Cast: Rodelinda - Anna Caterina Antonacci, Eduige - Louise Winter, Bertarido - Andreas Scholl, Garibaldo - Umberto Chiummo, Unulfo - Artur Stefanowicz, Grimoaldo - Kurt Streit.
