Donizetti's L'elisir d'amore from the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, starring Nadine Sierra and Liparit Avetisyan, conducted by Sesto Quatrini.
Donizetti's romantic comedy is a love story between the peasant Nemorino and his boss, the beautiful Adina, who hastily agrees to marry Sergeant Belcore. Nemorino's hopes are lifted when he meets the wheeler-dealer Doctor Dulcamara selling his so-called magic ‘elixir of love’, and believes this will be the answer to winning Adina's heart. The opera is full of wonderful melodies, and performed by an all-star cast including soprano Nadine Sierra making her ROH debut, Liparit Avetisyan as the naive Nemorino, and Ambrogio Maestri as the travelling quack Dulcamara.
Presented by Andrew McGregor with guest Sarah Lenton.
