About Haendel - Alessandro with Max Emanuel Cencic (Opéra Royal de Versailles)
Alessandro (HWV 21), is an opera composed by George Frideric Handel in 1726 for the Royal Academy of Music. Paolo Rolli's libretto is based on the story of Ortensio Mauro's La superbia d'Alessandro. This was the first time the famous singers Faustina Bordoni and Francesca Cuzzoni appeared together in one of Handel's operas. The original cast also included Francesco Bernardi who was known as Senesino. The story recounts Alexander the Great's journey to India and depicts him less in a heroic vein than as vainglorious as well as indecisive in matters of the heart. The work's charm and lightness of touch make it at times almost a comic work.[3]
Directed by George Petrou, Haendel - Alessandro with Max Emanuel Cencic (Opéra Royal de Versailles) leans on a strong ensemble — Max Emanuel Cenčić, Adriana Kučerová, Blandine Staskiewicz — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about music titles of 2013.
