Opera Australia presents
Bizet's opera
The Pearlfishers
including one of the famous duet, In the depths of the temple,
performed by Michael Lewis as Zurga with Henry Choo making his role
debut as Nadir. This intricate and visually captivating production,
created by Ann-Margret Pettersson, casts a knowing light on the
nineteenth-century imaginings of ancient Ceylon. As for Bizet's music,
it overflows with dramatic energy and lyricism. After her success as
Lakmé, Leanne Kenneally gives voice to the impossibly beautiful Léïla,
while once again conductor Emmanuel Joel-Hornak brings Bizet's rich and
subtle score to life. Sung in French with English surtitles.
