Details
The classical Greek myth is transformed into an enchanting new chamber opera. The lonely and lovely Echo falls for Narcissus, who has eyes only for his own reflection, and their tragic love story is overseen by a chorus of wise and witty nymphs. With music that draws on the baroque sound of Purcell and Monteverdi, this opera of love and longing is as classical as it is contemporary and a must for all music lovers. Sung in English. Running time: 1hr.
