A work of emotional chiaroscuro that ranges from heroic tragedy to slamming-door farce, set in the late Roman Republic under the rule of the fearsome dictator Sulla (here called Silla). Young Flora and Pompeo are impassioned lovers. But Silla and Pompeo’s dad have other plans: Pompeo is to marry Silla’s daughter, Emilia. The only problem is that Emilia is already married to somebody else. And Pompeo (the future Pompey the Great), though a hero on the battlefield, turns out to be a spineless wuss when it comes to standing up to Dad and defending his girlfriend. Flora exerts her seductive superpowers to get her man. But will she succeed?

Jakub Józef Orliński countertenor; il Pomo d'Oro

Wigmore Hall

Polish countertenor Jakub Józef Orliński has surged to the heights of the international classical music scene with ease, his vibrancy paving his path and setting him apart from the rest. Founded in 2012 by Giulio D’Alessio and Gesine Lübben, Il Pomo d’Oro swiftly established itself as an ensemble of outstanding quality. These powerful forces come together in stunning synchronicity in this Bing Concert Hall performance.
