Bajazet by Antonio Vivaldi - Irish National Opera

An extraordinary thriller. A dark, tense, claustrophobic environment. Powerful men, strong women. Desires of the heart clashing with rank and duty. If you liked the high-wire singing in INO’s Vivaldi Griselda last year, you’ll love the adrenalin rush of the instrumentally virtuosic vocal writing and show-stopping arias in his Bajazet.

A co-production with the Royal Opera House. In partnership with Irish Baroque Orchestra

SUNG IN ITALIAN WITH ENGLISH SURTITLES
