From our friends

Rinaldo

Glyndebourne
8 – 25 August 

Rinaldo was Handel’s first opera for the London stage, and it’s no coincidence that it was also the most popular during his lifetime. Composed especially with English tastes in mind, the opera is a work of spectacle and sensation filled with ‘thunder, lightning, illuminations and fireworks’. Handel’s score more than matches the exotic, Crusader-inspired plot for thrills, bringing together many of the young composer’s greatest hits in a glittering musical collage that gives its audience everything from heartbreaking arias and heart-stopping virtuoso numbers to thrilling brass fanfares and rich, emotive string writing.
