Georg Friedrich Handel’s first great operatic success, Agrippina, was triumphantly received in Venice after it premiered in 1709. To mark its 40th anniversary, the Accademia Bizantina will revive the opera seria in which Agrippina conspires to put her son Nero on the throne. When writing this score at just 25 years of age, Handel already demonstrated his great psychological finesse and dazzling sense of vocal drama.

English

Premier grand succès lyrique de Georg Friedrich Haendel, Agrippina a dès sa création en 1709 à Venise bénéficié d’un accueil triomphal. À l’occasion de ses 40 ans, l’Accademia Bizantina remet à l’honneur cet opera seria où conspire Agrippine pour mettre son fils Néron sur le trône. En signant cette partition à 25 ans seulement, Haendel annonçait déjà sa grande finesse psychologique et son sens éblouissant de la dramaturgie vocale.
