Alcina: George Frideric Handel

A lovely informal picture of the cast from Longborough itself: from left (as far as I know who’s who): Ruggiero (Hanna-Liisa Kirchin), one of Alcina’s former lovers turned stag (either William Smith or James Atkinson), Morgana (Lucy Hall), Bradamante (Anna Harvey), Oronte (Christopher Diffey), Alcina (Julia Sitkovetsky), Melisso (Matthew Durkan), Oberto’s father, whose name I have shamefully forgotten, and I’m afraid I don’t know who the singer is, Oberto himself (Rosie Lomas) and another of the ex-lovers-turned-stag (William Smith, James Atkinson)

Longborough Festival Opera, 2016
