NEW TO NORTH NORFOLK MUSIC FESTIVAL

OPERA FILMS at NORTH CREAKE VILLAGE HALL

Friday 12th November

Un ballo in maschera by Verdi

Dame Josephine Barstow: Amelia

Leo Nucci: Count Anckarstrom, her husband

Placido Domingo: King Gustavus III

Sumi Jo: Oscar, the King’s page

The Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra,

conductor Sir Georg Solti

Dame Josephine Barstow’s presence at the launch of our Opera Film Season will make this evening a very special occasion. Dame Jo stars as Amelia in this

legendary performance from the Salzburg Festival given on 28 July 1990.

First performed at the Teatro Apollo, Rome on 17 February 1857 this

powerful tale of privilege, infidelity and revenge takes place in Stockholm at the Court of King Gustavus III.  The dramatic narrative and great arias ensure that

Un ballo in maschera remains one of the most performed of all operas.

The performance we are seeing tonight was to have been conducted by

Herbert von Karajan, but his sudden death only a few days before led to his place being taken by Sir Georg Solti.

 

7pm –Dame Josephine Barstow in conversation with Barry Cheeseman

7.20pm – Un ballo in maschera

There will be short interval between Acts II and III

The film will finish c. 10.30pm

For tickets please call the North Norfolk Music Festival box office on 01328 730357 or print out this special OPERA BOOKING FORM

Tickets £7 (includes a glass of wine on arrival)

Future presentations after Christmas will include Monserrat Caballé in a rare video of Adrianna Lecouvreur.  Who knows, Monserrat herself may join us!
