Info zu Rossini: Moïse et Pharaon (Live)

Following the French theatre tradition for spectacular biblical dramas during Lent, Rossini’s Moise was an incredible success at its Parisian premiere in 1827, and the opera is presented here in its complete form. Alongside power struggles and miracles, there develops a love story between Pharaoh’s son Amenophis and the Israelite Anai, though the main narrative is that of the Exodus from Egypt: Rossini’s riveting score with its spellbinding finales culminates in the parting of the waves of the Red Sea. In this single work, Rossini laid the foundations of grand opera, and it is widely considered to be among his greatest achievements.

"The following a cappella ensemble for Moses, Anaï, Marie and Éliézer is one of Rossini’s greatest creations—but then he returns to his bouncy melodies for the very next scene. This is what I mean about the music being interesting…" (The Art Music Lounge)

The Gorecki Chamber Choir collaborates with the Academy of Music in Krakow, the Beethoven Academy Orchestra, Sinfonietta Cracovia, The Symphony Orchestra of the Feliks Nowowiejski Warmia and Mazury Philharmonic, and the Symphony Orchestra of Artur Malawski Philharmonic in Rzeszow. The Choir has recorded seven albums, two of which were nominated for the Fryderyk award in Poland. The choir made its debut at Rossini in Wildbad in 2018.
