Rossini - Le Comte Ory / Massis · Laho · Montague · Shaulis · Tézier · Davis · Jérôme Savary · Glyndebourne Festival Opera

Glyndebourne's intimate opera house provides the perfect setting for Rossini's third French opera, a sparkling medieval comedy of lust and chastity. Jrme Savary brings out all the verve and excitement of this rarely heard score in his acclaimed 1997 Festival production. "Savary handles the sexually confusing final trio quite brilliantly and his designer, Ezio Toffolutti, contrives some beautifully romantic, sepia-tinted scenes, not least his naughty ladies' bathing chamber." THE DAILY TELEGRAPH With the London Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Andrew Davis, the Glyndebourne Chorus, Ludovic Tezier, Stella Woodman and Marc Laho.
