THE ABDUCTION FROM THE SERAGLIO (Concert performance) 

The ICO collaborates once again with Irish National Opera. The Abduction from the Seraglio was one of Mozart’s most successful operas during the composer’s lifetime. It explores conflicts between nationalities and cultures with the lightest and most sophisticated of touches. An exotically colourful score includes some of Mozart’s most brilliant, extreme, and virtuosic arias.  Featuring a host of wonderful singers including Claudia Boyle, Dean Power, Sarah Power, Andrew Gavin and Jonathan Lemalu, this production is conducted by INO Artistic Partner Peter Whelan.  It is sung in German with English surtitles.  This performance is brought to you by the National Concert Hall, part of its Live Stream Series. The concert will be available to tickets holders for 48 hours following the performance.
