DIDO & AENEAS
OPERA IN THREE ACTS BY HENRY PURCELL

Commandaria Orchestra of The Cyprus Wine Museum will appear, under the baton of its conductor and artistic director Francis Guy, at Cyprus Opera Organization and Varna State Opera opera production ”Dido and Aeneas”, at The Pattihion Municipal Theatre in Limassol.

The famous baroque opera, ”Dido and Aeneas” by Henry Purcell’s and libretto of Nahum Tate, is one of the masterpieces of the world’s lyrical repertoire.

Considered the first masterpiece of English opera, Henry Purcell’s 1689 opera is based on the story of Dido, queen of Carthage, and Aeneas, the prince of Troy. With scenes of sorcery and spirits and a magnificent final lament, sailors tell the tale of the love and abandonment.
