Handel: Admeto re di Tessiglia, Opera in three Acts [Blu-ray] Summary George Frideric Handel's Admeto is considered one of the most successful operas produced in the
first half of the 18th century. Along
with Radamisto, Giulio Cesare, Tamerlano, Rodelinda and Alessandro, which were also written in this period, Admeto belongs
to Handel's so-called London operas - works he composed for the Royal Academy of Music. Though born in Halle, Germany, Handel
spent most of his adult life in London and became a British subject in 1727.
Axel Köhler, the celebrated counter-tenor who is active in Munich, Halle and Berlin now also well known for his work as a director
- has brought Admeto into the modern era in timeless style by the skilful application of imaginative theatrical digressions. Köhler's
production at the Halle Opernhaus revisits a work that encompasses comedy, tragedy and almost absurd grotesqueness and gives it
a convincing metaphor in the form of a modern hospital.
The recording of ADMETO on this Blu-Ray forms the highlight and also the conclusion of our Handel Festival cycle, which began four
years ago with TAMERLANO, and was followed by TESEO.
