TRAILER | AGRIPPINA Handel - The Grange Festival

EXTRACT | AGRIPPINA 'L'alma mia frà le tempeste' Handel - The Grange Festival 

My soul among the storms
Agrippina (Anna Bonitatibus) wants Nerone, her son from a previous marriage, to accede to the throne now that Claudio, her husband, has apparently drowned at sea. While a political storm brews in Rome, she remains calm, confident that her deceitful plan will work. Conducted by Robert Howarth and direct

EXTRACT | AGRIPPINA 'L'alma mia frà le tempeste' Handel - The Grange Festival

With her husband apparently drowned at sea, a scheming empress secures the throne for her son from another marriage. But the commander of the army has other ideas, and then the emperor returns, very much alive.

The inspired vision of director Walter Sutcliffe and designer Jon Bausor brings to life the humour and egomania of one of opera’s most outrageous leading women. The youthful Handel packed Agrippina with the full range of his astonishing imagination, setting a libretto at once hilarious, moving and clever. Handel’s music is bursting with originality and fun, as well as carefully considered moments of eye-watering beauty.
