The last of five operas at this year's Festival in Aix-en-Provence is
Pygmalion and is to be premiered coming Friday, July 16. This production of
Jean-Philippe Rameau's opera/ballet is directed by
Trisha Brown and
William Christie will conduct his amazing
Les Arts Florissants. The cast includes the most brilliant
Ed Lyon, as well as excellent
Sophie Karthäuser,
Karolina Blixt,
Emmanuelle de Negri. The show was pre-premiered last month in Amsterdam, received mixed reviews, but again everyone praised the brilliance of the singers...
