Ezio

Countertenor Yosemeh Adjei sings the title role in Ezio, by Handel, in a production from the 2009 Schwetzingen Festival.

Rococo Theatre, Schwetzingen

September 19, 2009, 1:00 pm

Composer: George Frideric Handel
Conductor: Attilio Cremonesi

 

Cast:

Yosemeh Adjei (Ezio); Netta Or (Fulvia); Mariselle Martinez (Valentiniano); Hilke Andersen (Onoria); Donat Havar (Massimo); Marcell Bakonyi (Varo)

 

While Ezio may lack the lustrous ensembles that characterize some of Handel's best operas, the musical and dramatic impact of its many spectacular solo arias make its characters some of the most vivid that Handel ever evoked.
