Saul
With a musical score of heart-breaking beauty and intensity, Saul takes us into a nightmare world of madness and despair.
This powerful production delves deep into Handel’s grand setting of the well-known Biblical tale of the first king of Israel’s love and loathing for his eventual successor, David. We watch Saul crumble before our eyes, as dramatically as Shakespeare’s King Lear, as he watches David win everyone’s heart – including that of his son, Jonathan.
The first of Handel’s great English oratorios, Saul promises to be an evening of dramatic choruses, bravura solo singing and the famous ‘Dead March’.
Transferring direct from Festival 2015, this is the first production from the brilliant, provocative Australian director, Barrie Kosky, at Glyndebourne.
