Rossini: Armida
It is a rare opera indeed that calls for one soprano diva and no fewer than six tenors. Mary Zimmermanâs fanciful production of Rossiniâs drama, designed by Richard Hudson and with choreography by Graciela Daniele, provides the perfect setting for superstar RenĂ©e Flemingâs captivating performance of the title role. A beautiful but evil sorceress in the times of the Crusades, Armida sets out to regain the love of the Frankish knight Rinaldo (Lawrence Brownlee) by putting her magical spells on him. She at first succeeds to draw him into her web of sorcery, but ultimately divine interventionâand his fellow soldiersâfree Rinaldo from his enchantmentâmuch to the vengeful fury of Armida and her demons.
