Gounod's FAUST at Echunga
About
With its irresistible stream of melodies, Gounod’s Faust has long been a favourite in the international world of opera. There are curiosities in the opera's genesis towards the iconic piece that we know today. For example, Valentin’s sublime aria was composed (in English) specifically for the Covent Garden premiere and later translated into French for the Paris Opera House season. This, along with the Italian version presented very early in Rome, will allow us to reflect the different national connections that impacted Gounod's masterpiece.SINGERS: Robert Macfarlane [Faust], Livia Brash [Margeurite], Eugene Raggio [Mephistopheles], Jeremy Tatchell [Valentin], Alexandra Grave [Siebel], Sean ?????
