Revival
Soprano Lise Davidsen returns to headline Beethoven’s only opera
as Leonore, who risks everything to save her husband from the
clutches of tyranny. Tenor David Butt Philip is the political prisoner
Florestan, sharing the stage with bass-baritone Tomasz Konieczny
as the villainous Don Pizarro, veteran bass René Pape as the jailer
Rocco, and soprano Ying Fang and tenor Magnus Dietrich, in
his company debut, as the young Marzelline and Jaquino. Bass
Stephen Milling sings the principled Don Fernando.
