CELEBRATES ITS TWENTIETH ANNIVERSARY WITH BRITISH PREMIERE OF MARTINŮ’S MIRANDOLINA
The British premiere of Martinů’s comic opera Mirandolina, directed by Martin Duncan and conducted by Martin André, is one of the three operas featured during the twentieth anniversary season of Garsington Opera. This production, in the fiftieth anniversary year of Martinů’s death, marks the first time that Garsington Opera has mounted an opera by the twentieth century Czech composer. The festival (3 June – 5 July) in addition presents two new productions – Rossini’s La Cenerentola, (directed by Daniel Slater and conducted by David Parry) and, for the first time at Garsington Opera, Beethoven’s Fidelio. Directed by John Cox and conducted by Douglas Boyd, Fidelio opens the festival which, once again, features an array of distinguished and rising talent.
