Events Description
Opera Atelier returns to the Elgin Theatre with the 1774 French version of Gluck’s Orpheus and Eurydice, which was written expressly for Marie Antoinette. The show stars Canadian tenor Colin Ainsworth as Orpheus — a role he first sang for Opera Atelier in 2007.
The French premiere of Gluck’s Orpheus and Eurydice was an unprecedented success and changed the history of French lyric theatre. The company’s groundbreaking production will star Canadian tenor Colin Ainsworth as Orpheus, soprano Mireille Asselin, as Eurydice, and the company debut of soprano Anna-Julia David as Amour.
The production will feature musical accompaniment from Tafelmusik and Chamber Choir, as well as members of the Nathaniel Dett Chorale, under the baton of David Fallis. Choreography by Founding Co-Artistic Director Jeannette Lajeunesse Zingg C.M. will be performed by the internationally acclaimed Artists of Atelier Ballet.
