DONATE TO HGO

An opera not-so-seria …

 

Join us at the sea-side in Victorian England, where Partenope, proprietress of a leading establishment, faces takeover attempts (on her hotel and herself) from neighbouring  hoteliers Arsace, Ormindo and Emilio, as well as the enigmatic Eurimene – can he really be what he seems? Threats, battles and surprises, and some thrilling singing, lead of course to a happy ending.

 

Ashley Pearson’s witty production and the talents of the HGO cast and orchestra bring Handel’s sly take on opera seria endearingly to life.  Our orchestra is conducted by Bertie Baigent, a finalist in the 2018 Donatella Flick LSO Conducting Competition.

A seriously surreal take on Handel’s Opera Seria – don’t expect to understand it, just sit back and wallow in the fun, lovely music, and amazing performances.
