    About This Event

    An evening of opera excerpts on the themes of separation and reconciliation

    A host of British opera stars join Ben Glassberg and the 大象传媒 Philharmonic for a night rich in emotion and drama. After a year of lockdowns and social distancing, the themes of isolation and loneliness as well as the joy of reunion have particular poignancy in excerpts from much-loved operas including Handel鈥檚 Rodelinda, Beethoven鈥檚 Fidelio, Humperdinck鈥檚 Hansel and Gretel and Puccini鈥檚 La boh猫me.

    There will be one interval

    Broadcast on 大象传媒 Four on Thursday 19 August
