Cinderela by Rossini, sab 27 jul 2019, De (2019/2019), Dirigido por Victoria Newlyn, Regente Matthew Kofi Waldren, West Green House Gardens, Hook, Reino Unido

Rossini’s charming interpretation of Perrault and the Grimm Brothers’ immortalised fairy tale of Cinderella brings all the loved characters to life but slightly differently. Here Cinderella has a stepfather, Don Magnifico, a comic tour de force. The Prince’s Valet is disguised as his master and Alidoro, a philosopher, takes the place of a fairy godmother. This is Rossini at his finest and with soaring arias and tender melodies this comic opera is often regarded as Rossini’s most successful.
