Baroque Banter - The Incantation Scene with guest Celeste Lazarenko

By Pinchgut Opera | banter | 23 Apr 2020 |

Baroque Banter is Pinchgut Opera's new podcast series and this first episode will focus on a very famous scene from one of Erin Helyard's very favourite operas. It is the incantation scene sung by Medea from Cavalli’s Giasone, with a wonderful libretto by Cicognini. It was very famous and became a model for composers and librettists for over a century. Erin will explain some of the features of the incantation scene and he’ll also be speaking to Celeste Lazarenko, who sang Medea for Pinchgut Opera back in 2013.


We acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which we work and perform, the Gadigal people of the Eora nation – the first storytellers and singers of songs.
We pay our respects to their elders past and present.
