Werk: Orpheus

Der Charaktere einmütiges Leid ist meine Freude über Telemanns seltene, trilinguale Oper in erneuter Wiedererweckung durch René Jacobs.

In the hands of B'Rock Orchestra and conductor René Jacobs, Telemann's polyglot opera, once thought lost to time, becomes more than just a curiosity.

The New York City Opera has spent the season reinventing itself from a large company with a large theater to a peripatetic one presenting small works. Perhaps it was apt that they closed their season with Telemann’s Orpheus.
