Armida abbandonata
Opéra Grand Avignon place de l'Horloge 84000 Avignon
In the line of great sorceresses conquered by love, Armide, like Alcina or Circe, has inspired many composers.
This program is a musical journey between Lully, Vivaldi, Haydn and especially Handel, who were able to represent with passion and delicacy a woman torn between passion and power, and finally abandoned, mocked by a hero who preferred glory.
Handel's great cantata Armida abbandonata stands out in this journey, a true miniature opera in which the heroine gives free rein to her excess and madness.
