Pour ce rare Haendel, Sandrine Piau nous invite sur les rives du Nil pour y vivre les aventures de la reine Bérénice. Il s’agit du dernier ouvrage écrit par Haendel pour le Théâtre de Covent Garden, au cours d’une période de crise marquée par la désaffection de plus en plus grande du public londonien pour l’opéra italien. Créée le 18 mai 1737, Berenice ne devait connaître en tout que quatre représentations, devant des salles clairsemées, avant de tomber dans l’oubli pour ne réapparaître qu’en 2001 au festival de Karlsruhe. Et pourtant Haendel y déploie tout son savoir-faire de l’art de l’opera seria, sur un livret riche et complexe où se mêlent une nouvelle fois conflits politiques et amoureux.

Sandrine Piau and a fine cast serve up this rare Handel which takes us on a journey to the banks of the Nile.

For this rare work by Handel, Sandrine Piau transports us to the banks of the Nile to follow the adventures of Queen Berenice. This was the last work written by Handel for the Covent Garden Theatre during a crisis period when London audiences were falling out of love with Italian opera. Premiered on 18 May 1737, Berenice was performed just four times to sparse audiences and languished in obscurity until it was revived in 2001 at the Karlsruhe Festival. Yet Handel had brought his mastery of the opera seria genre to bear on a rich and complex libretto once again featuring both political and romantic conflicts.
