About

Stradella is an opera full of youthful ardour, animated by a strong romantic spirit, in which the orchestra - as one would expect from even a young César Franck - is not mere accompaniment to the voices but has a role of its own.

13th March 2015

A convoluted romantic intrigue, Stradella was Franck's only opera, written in his early twenties. It shows him already to have been a master of the Italianate style and capable of writing memorable melodies. The Orchestra and Chorus of the Royal Opera of Wallonia and an all-Flemish cast under Paolo Arrivabeni do the honours.
