King Arthur by Purcell, tirs. 29 aug. 2023, Fra (2023/2023), Dirigent Hans Vercauteren, The Cockpit, London, United Kingdom

“Did it have to be me?” ARTHUR is a new piece of music theatre on the final hours of King Arthur. Merlin returns and visits Arthur in his battlefield tent, the evening before the final (and fatal) battle. Both a serious and funny little show about an old man at the zenith of his greatness, reliving childhood lessons with Merlin, swordfighting and drinking his final mead! A look into the humanity of a once powerful ruler. Charles Sobry plays Arthur, Bartel Jespers plays Merlyn and soprano Rosalind Dobson sings as the Lady of the Lake. Violinist Maja Horvat underscores this show as a musical Guinevere.
