Mozart BASTIEN AND BASTIENNE
Written in 1768, when Mozart was only twelve, this dramatic
love-story is one of Mozart’s earliest operas.
Although very young,
Mozart already had excellent vocal writing skills and a talent for
parody and whimsy that still delights the modern day audience.
Bastien
and Bastienne are young lovers who are destined to be together – but
does the path of true love ever run smoothly? Sung in English and revived by Emma Doyle, this charming 45-minute piece is the perfect introduction to opera and a revelation of young Mozart for seasoned opera fans.
"...deft
production keeps the interest alive with lots of inventive comic
business."
