NSO: Lurline Opera Concert Performance

Based on the Lorelei legend of the Rhine mermaid, Lurline is Wallace’s most lyrical and Romantic work and one of his most lavish and dramatic operas.

The cast is led by Irish soprano Rachel Kelly, – ‘sheerly lustrous’ and ‘compelling’ (The Times), the Portuguese tenor, Luis Gomes – a ‘riveting performer’ with a ‘thrilling top register’ (The Guardian), Ashley Riches – the ‘rich and profoundly expressive bass-baritone’ (Opera Today) and the young Irish mezzo-soprano Gemma Ní Bhriain, – ‘restrained…musicianly…solid as a rock’ (Irish Times). The performance marks the Irish debut of the highly regarded Péter Halász, principal guest conductor of the Hungarian State Opera.

Tickets €15, €23.50, €31, €38.50
