Cadogan Hall, Sloane Terrace, SW1

Gluck – Orfeo ed Euridice

Concert performance with
Michael Chance Orfeo
Erica Eloff Euridice
Mary Nelson Amore
and Counterpoint period instrument ensemble

Gluck's retelling of the ancient myth of Orpheus and Eurydice adds a happy ending to their story of love and loss. First performed in 1762, Orfeo ed Euridice was an operatic landmark, conveying extremes of human emotion in a simple classical style, most movingly in the famous aria Che farò senza Euridice? The chorus plays an integral part in the opera, as nymphs, shepherds, Furies and Blessed Spirits.

Tickets £25, £20, £16, £12 from the Cadogan Hall box office, 020 7730 4500.
