Description
Don César de Bazan is an opéra-comique with a narrative of dashing Spanish chivalry and romance. This was the young Jules Massenet’s first full-length opera and yet it is filled with the composer’s mature symphonic style, his gift for melody, feeling for the picturesque, and vivacity of rhythm. Massenet’s Don César de Bazan has for many years been known only by its famous Sevillana, a favourite showstopper in recitals for the soprano voice. The 2019 revival of this opera in the Théâtre de la Porte Saint-Martin was critically acclaimed. ‘A great time!’ was had by the writer of the zenitudeprofondelemag.com blog, and the production was considered ‘an astonishing renaissance’
