Elizabeth Alker presents a round-up of the best of the 大象传媒 Performing Groups this year. Today's opera matinee is the 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra performing Arthur Sullivan's Haddon Hall, his first work after his famous partnership with W.S Gilbert ended. With a libretto by Sydney Grundy, it's based on the legend of sixteenth century Haddon Hall heiress Dorothy Vernon's elopement with John Manners, the son of the Earl of Rutland. The action is set against the backdrop of the English Civil War between the Royalists and the Roundheads.
