About

The Glyndebourne Festival is a quintessentially English summer event. The world’s most acclaimed artists, conductors and directors excel in producing top-flight performances every year, and this new collection offers the choice of five classic opera productions - Gianni Schicchi, L'elisir d'amore, Falstaff, Carmen and The Miserly Knight.

In the pit, Vladimir Jurowski and the London Philharmonic hone their reflexes so that the instrumental guffaw, exclamation, explosive flourish leaps out at you. It’s exciting and detailed and rhythmically so alive.’ - The Independent
