Alceste - Teatro La Fenice
Synopsis
At deathās door, a beloved king is doomed unless someone takes his place. So then his wife resolves to sacrifice herself to save him. Christoph Willibald Gluck composed his reform opera Alceste not once, but twice. In La Feniceās production of the lesser-known original Italian version, director Pier Luigi Pizzi strips the action down to the bare emotional drama of Alcesteās sacrifice.
