Tue, 4th December 2007 - Sat, 8th December 2007
From £70.00*

After last season’s sell-out performances, Glyndebourne on Tour returns to Sadler’s Wells with three more exceptional operas. This opera company, one of the world’s finest, is renowned for its guaranteed first-class productions, which offer a stunning variety of musical and theatrical styles. The Tour opens with a Glyndebourne classic - Peter Hall’s marvellous staging of Britten’s Albert Herring, which enjoyed such critical acclaim when it toured five years ago. “If such a thing as a definitive production of the work exists, this is it” SUNDAY TELEGRAPH on Albert Herring Direct from this summer’s Festival comes Richard Jones’s dramatic production of Verdi’s Macbeth – sixty years after the last time Glyndebourne toured this piece when, in 1947, it opened the first Edinburgh Festival. “…a white-hot triumph for Glyndebourne” DAILY TELEGRAPH on Macbeth The repertoire is completed with a new production of Donizetti’s sparkling comedy, L’elisir d’amore (The Elixir of Love), created especially for the Tour by Annabel Arden. Donizetti’s orchestral score alternates between joyful tunes and soaring melodies which perfectly complements this irresistibly charming opera.
