Recorded March 2018

Libretto by Pierre-Louis Moline, after the play Orphée et Euricide by Ranieri de Calzabigi.
Opera in 3 acts
Sung in French with English subtitles

Juan Diego Flórez dazzled audienced and critics alike when he played the virtuoso role of Orphée in La Scalas first ever staging of Glucks opera in its French version: Juan Diego Flórez delivered a lesson in style. His tone is darker and his projection more self-effacing than in the past, but class is permanent. His agility and legato are utterly thrilling. The ovations were never-ending. (Corriere della sera)
