The opera Ruggiero’s liberation (La liberazione di Ruggiero dall’isola d’Alcina) composed by Francesca Caccini in 1625 is based on Ludovico Ariosto’s epic poem Orlando Furioso, familiar to their contemporaries. In the opera, we dive into the enchanted plants of the island of Alcina; to a world of enchantments, murderous witches, golden-haired gods, storms, streams of tears, prayers and sighs.

In Almi Hall, in February 2024, the first Finnish stage performance of Caccini’s and librettist Saracinelli’s musical play will premiere in collaboration with the Arkkityypit (archetypes) and the Helsinki Baroque Orchestra. The wondering multi-sensory work explores the boundaries of freedom, responsibilities, torment, pleasure, controlled, unbridled, reality and fairy-tale.
