Vivica Genaux stars as Mandane, beloved of Arbace, who is accused of murdering her father to ascend to his throne.
Will she stand by him, and what is the truth?
Pinchgut favourite and Australian star David Hansen takes on the role that Farinelli made famous, and the remarkable Helpmann Award-winning countertenor Carlo Vistoli joins them in the role of villainous Artabano. We can’t quite believe we’ve brought these incredible talents together for this extraordinary musical event.
Pinchgut's Artaserse was an Australian premiere.
