Opera in three acts
British mezzo-soprano, Dame Janet Baker chose to retire from the operatic stage singing the title role in Sir Peter HaIl's acclaimed production of Orfeo ed Euridice. This 1982 recording from GIyndebourne, where Dame Janet appropriateIy began her professionaI career, proved a suitable crowning glory to the career of one of the great singing actresses of our age. Dame Janet's realization of Orfeo, the grieving musician from Greek mythoIogy who folIows his beloved wife Euridice to the depths of Hades in an attempt to bring her back from the dead, is totally convincing.
"...one of her finest and most moving portrayals". TV Times
