Recorded at Henry Wood Hall, London, September 2022

Presented by the London Philharmonic Orchestra and Opera Rara, Offenbach’s 1869 comic opera is funny, brimming with melody and topped off with a delicious spritz of sexiness.

Pure delight, in other words, fresh from the sparkling imagination of the man who invented operetta.

A travelling funfair, a lovesick Prince, a lottery ticket and a beautiful young woman pretending to be a waxwork … what could possibly go wrong?

We don’t hear it enough, but Opera Rara is out to put that right. In this rare revival, ex-ENO music director Paul Daniel conducts a hand-picked cast.

In association with Opera Rara

The Princess of Trebizond by Offenbach, Fri 16 Sep 2022, From (2022/2022), Conductor Paul Daniel, South Bank Centre, London, United Kingdom
