Rameau's Hippolyte et Aricie - 25th July

In another generous gesture, Glyndebourne are making the full video relay of Hippolyte et Aricie available entirely free, on 25th July (and thereafter for several weeks).

For those of us unable to get to East Sussex very easily, it's the perfect answer.

Watch the trailer:

Waldorf and Stadler, mouthing-off on another site, have already written-off the entire event. ;D

But those whose idea of a great evening's cultural entertainment extends to more than a glass of Sanatogen may take the opportunity to enjoy this magnificent piece of work
