Prom 64 - Berlioz's 'The Trojans' - Concert Performance archive

Part of the BBC Proms. Few musical spectacles are bigger or more overwhelming than Berlioz's The Trojans - the five-act grand opera, retelling the story of the fall of Troy and the doomed love of Dido and Aeneas, that the composer saw as the pinnacle of his career. By turns monumental and heartbreakingly intimate - a cinematic epic before its time - the vast score reshapes Virgil's Aeneid with unprecedented dramatic scope and intensity. Sir John Eliot Gardiner brings a lifetime's love of Berlioz to the music, with the help of an outstanding cast that includes British soprano Alice Coote and American tenor Michael Spyres. Sung in French with English surtitles
