Glyndebourne goes Carmelite
mainThree new shows just announced for Gly 2020: Poulenc’s Dialogues des Carmélites, Handel’s Alcina and Beethoven’s Fidelio.
Barrie Kosky will direct Carmelites.
It’s Stephen Langridge’s first season as artistic director but these plans belong to his predecessor, Sebastian Schwarz.
Just in case someone needs a discography:

For those who prefer their summer festivals in top hats and full-length gowns. No thanks.
Where do you mean? I’ve never seen a top hat at Glyndebourne.
What a bizarre comment. I’ve never seen a topper at Glynders in all the years I’ve been attending. Some sort ofweird reverse snobbery I guess!
Why does Glyndebourne have so little interest in Verdi beyond Macbeth and Falstaff?
…and their Traviata played dozens of times in 2014 and 2017, and their new Rigoletto this tour, you mean?
