Offenbach : La Princesse de Trébizonde

Description

A traveling circus, an innocent prince in love with a wax statue, and a lottery ticket to win a magnificent castle... What could possibly go wrong? The delightful opera La Princesse de Trébizonde (1869) is filled with irresistible melodies, finely crafted with delicate harmonies and inventive orchestration, characteristic of Offenbach's style. Following the award-winning releases of Robinson Crusoé (1993), Vert-Vert (2009), and Fantasio (2015), the label Opera Rara presents its fourth complete opera recording of Jacques Offenbach, whose pioneering work has influenced many composers in the 19th and 20th centuries.
