Laura Cherici

The mutual love of Princess Ginevra and Prince Ariodante of Fife has the full approval of her father, the King of Scotland. But Duke Polinesso covets the throne. An opera about truth and appearance, set by director John Pascoe in the 1950s, in the glamorous days of the British monarchy.

Michal Znaniecki stages Pergolesi's Il Flaminio at the Teatro Valeria Moriconi in Jesi, using a deliberately theatrical setting to play truth against fiction and tragedy against comedy. Ottavio Dantone conducts the Accademia Bizantina, with Juan Francisco Gatell, Laura Polverelli and Marina De Liso leading the cast. Recording is from 2010.
