Haendel - Alessandro with Max Emanuel Cencic (Opéra Royal de Versailles)

This production presents Handel's "Alessandro" (HWV 21), an opera composed in 1726. The libretto by Paolo Rolli is based on Ortensio Mauro's "La superbia d'Alessandro" and explores Alexander the Great's journey to India, portraying him in a less heroic and more human light. The cast includes notable performers such as Max Emanuel Cenčić and Adriana Kučerová, adding depth to the musical experience.

The performance highlights the charm and lightness of Handel's work, which at times takes on a comic tone. As part of the music genre, this opera stands out for its unique storytelling and rich historical context. The 2013 staging at the Opéra Royal de Versailles offers collectors a chance to own a piece of this artistic collaboration.
