Georg Frideric Handel Agrippina
N/A
300 years after it was first composed and staged with enormous success, Handel`s opera has become a masterpiece of 18th Century opera, an innovative work that was progressive in its sense of theater and melodic creativity, and notable in that Handel wrote it when he was only 24 years old. The story tells of the Empress Agrippina, who hatches a plot to install her son from her first marriage, Nero, on the throne in place of her ineffectual husband, Claudius. Sparkling with plot twists reminiscent of Shakespeare, the story is based on actual historical figures, and is told with wit and humor that will keep all audiences engaged; this performance, featuring Veronique Gens in the title role, will attract any lover of Baroque opera.
