Support Alcina
Be part of the dedicated group of supporters who bring Handel's Alcina to the Glyndebourne stage for the first time.
Glyndebourne Festival 2020 will see our first-ever production of Handel’s Alcina, directed by Francesco Micheli. Micheli brings style and sumptuous excess to Glyndebourne’s first staging, conducted by Gianluca Capuano.
A son searching for his father; a woman searching for her fiance; a sorceress searching for truth: Handel’s last and greatest ‘magic’ opera is an exuberant fantasy full of illusion and wizardry, but it’s also a probing psychological portrait of love in all its forms. In Alcina herself, Handel creates one of the most complex and compelling heroines of his career – at once witch and woman, villain and victim.
