Following Christopher Alden's Olivier Award-winning production of Partenope in 2008, ENO strengthens its position as the undisputed 'House of Handel' with a new production of the work that launched the composer's 20-year reign as London's lord of Italian opera. Premiered to celebrate the reconciliation of George I and his estranged son, the Prince of Wales, Radamisto is a tale of feuding royal families, torn apart by illicit and irrational passions. Conducted by leading Handelian Laurence Cummings and starring exciting young countertenor Lawrence Zazzo, this lavish and exotic new staging is directed by the multi-award-winning David Alden, whose Ariodante has long been admired as a jewel in ENO's Handelian crown.
