About the Event
At Madrid’s magnificent Teatro Real, Baroque drama takes the stage with Teatro Real: Riccardo Primo, Georg Friedrich Händel’s compelling opera of royal duty, love, and Mediterranean power in turmoil.
A landmark Baroque work – Riccardo Primo, re d’Inghilterra, Handel’s sole opera inspired by an English monarch’s story – arrives at the Real. Led by Paul Agnew, Les Arts Florissants revive this musical gem, joined by countertenor Hugh Cutting in the title role.
Opera in three acts.
Music by Georg Friedrich Händel (1685‐1759).
Libretto by Paolo Antonio Rolli, after Francesco Briani’s libretto Isacio tiranno (1710).
