Tragic Heroines - Dido and Aeneas, and Jepthe
This concert pairs two Baroque masterpieces - Purcell's Dido and Aeneas, with the lesser known Jepthe, by Carissimi. Both works explore the theme of 'tragic heroines'. To be performed in the intimate setting of Cheltenham's Parabola theatre, the concert promises an evening of great emotional range.
One of the first great English operas, Dido and Aeneas has a score that fizzes with energy, imagination, beauty and even comedy as a sailor sings of women! The famous aria
