Never miss another 'Northern Chamber Orchestra' show

Buxton Festival: Intermezzo: Northern Chamber Orchestra, Buxton Festival Ensemble
When a love letter is mistakenly delivered to a conductor, and is intercepted by his 'difficult' wife, a jealous rage ensues. Will the marriage survive?
Richard Strauss, one of the greatest of all opera composers, bases this musical masterpiece on real life exchanges with his wife. The resulting autobiographical comedy includes some of the composer's most radiant love songs and thrilling orchestral interludes. An extraordinarily powerful drama.
Libretto by the composer, sung in an English translation by Andrew Porter, with side-titles.
Part of a feast of opera, music and literature, set in the beautiful Peak District.
