King Arthur opera by Purcell

A true baroque pearl by Henry Purcell, with its plot full of twists and turns and its colorful characters, King Arthur has enjoyed considerable success since its first performance in 1690. But here it is in a new light: without cutting a single note of music or a single word of the text, the infernal trio Niquet, Shirley & Dino undertakes to explain in their own way this bizarre English story, where knights and monks immediately go from the delights of the table to the shivers of the cold! The music is brilliantly served by the troops of Hervé Niquet, one of the masters of this repertoire at the head of the Concert Spirituel. And for the rest, bring with you those who never go to the opera, adults and children: they will not miss a crumb of this exciting and fascinating evening which has thrilled the audience every time it is performed, forever conquered!
