One of the greatest ancient Greek and Roman myths tells of Queen Dido, daughter of a Phoenician king and widow of a priest, who founded and skillfully managed the wealthy city of Carthage. The love between her and the Trojan war hero Aeneas makes her happy. However, God's intervention led Aeneas to prefer debt to love and to march to fulfill the prophecy, creating the dynasty of Roman kings and in turn laying the foundations of another great city - Rome. Dido can't stand parting with his beloved and commits suicide. On his deathbed he foretells the future enmity between Rome and Carthage, which led to the Punic wars.

 

 

 

Written in 1689 by Henry Purcell (1659 - 1695), based on the libretto by Neyum Tate on motifs from Virgil's Aeneid, the opera was staged only once in the author's lifetime. It took a long time until 1895, when the London premiere of "Dido and Aeneas" attracted the attention of connoisseurs. Purcell masterfully combines elements of French and Italian baroque music with motifs from Scottish folklore, while creating a sophisticated, purely English baroque style. An astonishing example of a real opera in a country where the national opera has not yet been established, Purcell's Dido and Aeneas is considered the first English opera, which, according to many critics, is not inferior in its artistic perfection to the best Italian samples.
