displays all the hallmarks of the fresh, inventive writing that
was to flourish into extraordinary genius in his later works
and, with a cast as good as this, The Royal Opera’s
production takes Mitridate, re di Ponto to the highest levels
of operatic achievement. Based on a play by Jean Racine, it
is a story of jealous love and political intrigue.
Bruce Ford, Jochen Kowalski, Ann Murray, Luba Orgonasova & Lillian Watson The Royal Opera Chorus & The Orchestra of the Royal Opera House, Paul Daniel and Stage Directed by Graham Vick Mitridate, re di Ponto was performed twenty-one times
following its premiere in 1770 and hailed as a success, yet no
revival took place until the 20th century. This production from
the Royal Opera House was filmed in 1993 during the Mozart
Bicentennial Celebrations. ‘This is, unequivocally, a red-letter night at Covent Garden.’ The Sunday Times |
