Linda di Chamouni Promises a Persian Benefit Night
The masquerade season brings Linda di Chamouni to the stage on Thursday with Persiani in the title role for the first time in Britain. Fortasari also stars in a new operatic setting of Donizetti’s Linda, based on La Grace de Divu, with a plot of love, disguise, and a climactic return to virtue. The score is praised for its tender lyricism and rich ensemble numbers, and the production promises a major musical event.
