Familiar to audiences long before the rediscovery in recent decades of Monteverdi and Handel, it is also the best-known opera to have been composed before Mozart. And for good measure it is probably the world's favourite opera in English. This powerful and dramatic rendition will feature a drinks reception with strawberries 30mins prior to each performance.
