HALÉVY, F.: Juive (La) [Opera] (Braid, J. Osborn, G. Schneider, Buczkowska, Simon Lim, Frankfurt Opera Chorus and Orchestra, Nánási)

Fromental Halévy’s five-act grand opera La Juive charts the forbidden love between a Christian man and a Jewish woman, and the tragedy that ensues. The work’s pageantry, opulence and thrilling music made it one of the most enduringly successful operas of the 19th century with more than 500 performances in Paris alone. This acclaimed contemporary staging from Oper Frankfurt features Ambur Braid as the heroine Rachel, and John Osborn as her father Éléazar.
