Commemorating the 300th Anniversary of the composer's birth, from the Moscow Tchaikovsky Concert Hall comes a concert performance of Gluck's 'Orfeo ed Euridice' (the Paris version of 1774 where one significant change was the use of a high tenor - haute contra - instead of a castrato, a concept which beggars belief today).
The Musica Viva Moscow Chamber Orchestra with
William Lacey (conductor)
Colin Lee (tenor)
Deborah York (soprano)
Sophie Junker (soprano)
and the Intrada Vocal Ensemble.
