Cupid in Handel's "Semele"

  • San Francisco Conservatory of Music 50 Oak Street San Francisco, CA, 94102 United States (map)

Madelaine performs the role of Cupid (and chorus), and covers the role of Semele, in Handel's opera Semele. This unstaged production features the American Bach Soloists Chorus and Orchestra, along with ABS Academy vocal soloists. Jeffrey Thomas conducts. 

A second performance occurs on August 10 at 7:30 PM. 

From the American Bach Soloists website:
"Large-scale opera and oratorio is a major component of every ABS Summer Festival. Based on an English opera libretto yet designated “after the manner of an Oratorio,” Handel’s Semele melds the two forms into one superb work."
