Buxton Festival, an Evening of opera
Wednesday 16th July
Buxton Festival is an annual extravaganza of Opera, set in
the stunning setting of the Peak District. Orient-Express
recognises the continued efforts of the festival to offer a diverse
programme of opera from the UK's best companies and in 2008 will be
taking the Northern Belle to the evening performance of Samson by
Handel at the Buxton Opera House on Wednesday 16th July. The opera,
written in 1741, charts the downfall of the biblical figure that
looses his power when he looses his locks. This dramatic opera,
while rarely performed, is widely acknowledged to be one of
Handel's finest works.
The Northern Belle will exclusively be holding seats in the Stalls
for this performance in the beautifully restored and intimate
Matcham Theatre. Combine the opulent fine dining of the
Orient-Express with a truly magical evening of Opera!
