Orfeo Ed Euridice
Philippe Jaroussky (Orfeo), Patricia Petibon (Euridice) © Vincent Pontet
When Gluck returned to the fable of Orfeo more than a century and a half after Monteverdi, he also undertook to rewrite the existing conventions of opera. He decided to focus on the plot in all its power, cohesion and richness, which he believed should be in perfect harmony with the musical score. This premise gave rise to an innovative work with an incredible wealth of ballets and choruses which radiate luminous beauty while “revising” past forms. Philippe Jaroussky and Patricia Petibon undoubtedly have the grace and poetry to get the very most out of this impressive and painful descent into hell.
