Chaired by Professor Jo Robinson
As Opera North’s production of Verdi’s Falstaff, part of its Green Season, arrives in Newcastle, its former Head of Music shows how the great composer plays with ideas of time in this, his final masterpiece. Although the opera, based on Shakespeare’s The Merry Wives of Windsor, is set in a bustling present, Verdi uses subtle musical means to evoke a poetic past - and occasionally to stop time altogether.
