Description
Pious restraint comes face to face with sensuous hedonism in Camille Saint-Saens's grand opera retelling of the Bible story of Samson and Delilah. Multi-Olivier Award-winning director Richard Jones returns to The Royal Opera to stage this spectacular fin-de-siecle masterpiece, not performed at Covent Garden since 2004. Elina Garanca stars as the Philistine Dalila, SeokJong Baek as the inspiring Jewish hero Samson, and Antonio Pappano conducts the full forces of the Orchestra of the Royal Opera House. With superb singing in solos and duets of great intimacy and fervor, gorgeous music with thrilling orchestral interludes, and splendid choral numbers for the Royal Opera Chorus - this is a performance to remember.
