A characteristically refreshing, vividly theatrical take on Le nozze di Figaro from @Ensemble_OrQ @cockpittheatre Marylebone, running till Saturday. There's even a bit of audience participation.

Feeling a bit of a pioneer here. It was something of a revelation to experience Lully's Armide, staged by @Ensemble_OrQ @arcolatheatre, back in 2017.

Opera lives, with French baroque passion in deepest Dalston: the ever-adventurous @arcolatheatre grimeborn festival has a UK premiere of 18th-century opera by Elizabeth Jacquet de la Guerre, inventively staged in a tiny space by Ensemble OrQuesta. Some superbly stylish singing.

Superb, as always. Congratulations to all of the EO team.
Helen May da Silva retweeted
And we are so privileged to have world class haute-contre @KWhiteTenor @arcolatheatre but the others soloists like @PoppySoprano and those at least doubling roles, all contributing to a superb night of drama. Bravo. Five stars from me. Go, it's a very well connected venue! /End

The score kept up a classic French baroque tension throughout as the tragedy played out in recit, solos, ravishing duets, stunning trios (the zephyrs, the guys in red) and choruses (the guys in black) /3
Helen May da Silva retweeted
but #CéphaleEtProcris more personal, tragic, intimate than Rameau, more Monteverdi in fact. Hats off to superbly versatile playing/singing @marcio_dasilva @Ensemble_OrQ for producing such a workable and sympathetic score, aptly minimal staging, choreography and lighting /2
Helen May da Silva retweeted
What a revelation #CéphaleEtProcris as good as a top Monteverdi opera (and they are very top) critics have written off #ElizabethJacquetDeLaGuerre but the miniscule forces of @Ensemble_OrQ proved them so wrong - better than overrated contemporary Lully, as tuneful as Rameau /1

That’s a wrap on Show No. 2!
Join us @arcolatheatre for our remaining performances in the #Grimeborn Opera Festival until the 2nd September 2023.
