Work:: Prom 68 (S6005)
Part of the BBC Proms.
Production:: Rossini - Semiramide (T1797480974)
Sir Mark Elder conducts Rossini's operatic tragedy, which pushes singers to the limits of expression in recounting the story of Semiramide, Queen of Babylon, and her entrapment in a web of incest and revenge at the behest of her long-lost son. Vocal athleticism, vivid storytelling and Classical poise combine in Rossini's rarely heard opera, performed in concert. There will be one interval.
