  • ENO's 2014 production of Handel's Rodelinda was directed by Richard Jones, conducted by Christian Curnyn and starring Rebecca Evans, Iestyn Davies, John Mark Ainsley and Susan Bickley.
    Rodelinda is an epic story of love, power and mistaken identity, widely considered one of Handel's operatic masterpieces, and infused with compelling characters and ravishing music.

    The accompanist is Nicholas Ansdell Evans. We rehearse operas with pianos. Harpsichords are no replacement for an orchestra either, thus there is little pity in this version!

    • @renzo6490
      @renzo6490 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Kalo...There is some merit to that thought. Knowing what words mean makes it difficult for us to hear the words as pure sound. English speakers can never know what we sound like to foreigners when they hear us talk. And not understanding the words of songs sung in an unknown language helps us hear the pure sound of those words better than if we knew the meanings.
      The same principle holds true for vision as it does for hearing. When you are drawing a cup, for example, that is turned upside down, you see the lines, curves and ellipses of the cup's shape more clearly than if the cup were right side up. Right side up, you draw what you know about a cup rather than what you SEE. In both cases, familiarity alter perception.
