The Fair at Venice

Approved

A bustling canal-side market, a rigged raffle, a philandering Duke with his resourceful floozy, and the romantic confusion of a masked ball – “see Venice and lie!” would be an apt subtitle for this boisterous and colourful comedy from 1772.  La fiera di Venezia is a delight from ebullient start to festive finale, and the music sparkles with melody and energy.  Bampton is thrilled to present its fourth opera production by the remarkable Antonio Salieri, in his lifetime a far more successful composer than Mozart.  This UK première production, sung in a new and appealing English translation, is an operatic event not to be missed, the highlight of Bampton Classical Opera’s celebratory 30th season.
