Product Description
With Fidelio, Beethoven found the perfect vehicle to express his lifelong commitment to liberty. The work exposes the reality that at any moment in the world, at any point in history, unjust atrocities are being committed, which can only be prevented by an individual belief in the sanctity of human life and the all-conquering power of universal love. This timeless theme is as relevant today as it was when Beethoven started to write his opera in 1804. Anja Kampe and Torsten Kerl made their Glyndebourne debuts in the roles of Leonore and Florestan in 2006 to rapturous critical praise and this production won the Royal Philharmonic Society Opera Award in 2001.Libretto translated from the original French into English, Italian and German.

Extensive accompanying booklet including a commissioned article about the opera.
Feature and review publicity in national newspapers, radio and specialist music magazines
Features two exciting Glyndebourne debuts from Anja Kampe and Torsten Kerl.

Glyndebourne's searing, sublime Fidelio is an example of what can happen - but seldom does - when everything comes together in opera...Do anything to get a ticket: opera simply does not come better than this --The Sunday Telegraph, 2006

Anja Kampe is the Leonore of one s dreams and Torsten Kerl's Florestan complements her ideally, with thrilling tone from them both in their duet. --Opera Magazine, 2006

A moving and enthralling Fidelio...Glyndebourne has pulled it off, in a revival that shows the place on top form building on teamwork, attention to detail and rigorous rehersal.. --The Daily Telegrap, 2006
