There is to be a concert performance of Bellini's Adelson e Salvini. This is a joint venture between Opera Rara and the BBC Symphony Orchestra. Though written while Bellini was still a student, the indulgent, ardent and lyrical melodies are typical of Bellini. Sounds like a good evening. There will be a recording of this, to be issued later in the year. Venue; Barbican, London date; 11 May 2016
Nice to hear this :-) There is still a Nuova Era recording, with an excellent cast, made at the Teatro Bellini in Catania in 1992... On the same label, you can also find Bellini's "Bianca e Ferando" and "Zaira".
