Partenope from San Francisco Opera
Tickets for the stream are $27.50. Click here
More from San Francisco Opera which is livestreaming one performance of each of its operas during its Summer Season. The second livestream is Partenope. Love is a battlefield in Christopher Alden’s Olivier award-winning production of Partenope, a laugh-out-loud comedy of romance and rejection, set to some of George Frideric Handel’s most masterful music. In this SF production, Partenope is the most eligible debutante in 1920s Paris. And she’s besieged by suitors.
Christopher Moulds conducts Handel’s virtuosic score, a brisk confection full of high-flying virtuosity and emotionally stirring arias.
Partenope will be livestreamed on Sunday, June 23rd at 2pm Pacific Time which is a bit easier for those of us who are a long way from San Francisco.
