Handel - Alcina
Teatro Real Madrid presents one of Georg Friedrich Handel’s masterpieces, the opera Alcina. Handel got inspired by the fantastical story Orlando furioso by Ludovico Ariosto. With the operas Ariodante and Orlando, Handel created a trio of operas out of this epic poem. The story features the sorceress Alcina, who draws the protagonists to her island to seduce them and turn them into parts of the landscape. Stage director David Alden took this magical story to today’s reality with reference to Hollywood, magazines, and musical comedy. The orchestra and chorus of the Teatro Real play under the baton of Christopher Moulds with soloists Karina Gauvin, Anna Christy, Christine Rice, Sonia Prina, Luca Tittoto, Allan Clayton, and Erika Escriba.
