Glyndebourne's second new production this season is Carlo Marina von Weber's Euryanthe.

A complicated Gothic plot of an opera, full of love, betrayal, jealousy and grief written in the first quarter of the 19th Century.

Weber shattered operatic form by having no dialogue or recitative and a continuous musical score where every word is sung or declaimed.

This is the first time this opera has been presented at Glyndebourne and it will be conducted by Mark Elder with the Orchestra Of The Age Of Enlightenment.

Richard Jones is the director and the cast includes Clive Bayley, John Daszak, Pavlo Hunka and Anne Schwanewilms.
