Gloriana

To celebrate the 50th anniversaries of the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth I and of the opera written by Benjamin Britten to celebrate that event, Gloriana, the 56th Aldeburgh Festival presented two gala, semi-staged performances of the opera. The opera has, over the years, gained a reputation as one of the finest in the 20th century repertoire and Genesis is proud to have been able to help in making this revival possible, with performances that are bound to further enhance its reputation.
