Barrie Kosky's visually stunning take on Gluck's Armide at De Nederlandse Opera

Nicolas Nguyen, 10th October

After Cavalli’s Ercole Amante in 2009 and Handel’s Deidamia in 2011, De Nederlandse Opera is continuing its exploration of obscure Baroque operas with Gluck’s Armide, until 27 October.I always wondered why Armide was Gluck’s own favourite work.
