Rossini's Guillaume Tell at the Chorégies d'Orange

Celebrating the 150th edition of the Chorégies d'Orange festival, a rare video recording of Rossini's last opera Guillaume Tell on 12 July 2019 in 4K.

"Guillaume Tell is a work of astonishing beauty. Twenty years before the people's spring, Rossini chose, for his ultimate opera, a great ode to freedom inspired by Schiller. A people fight for their freedom and find their hero in their midst. Faced with the incomparable beauty of this score, it is hard to know what to admire the most: the arias, duets, elegiac or heroic trios, the great chorus scenes, the elegance or the violence of the ballet scenes, the exaltation of nature or the extraordinary ending..."
