Al Bustan Festival - Norma Opera in Concert Performance
Al Bustan Festival - Norma Opera in Concert Performance
Vincenzo Bellini and his librettist were inspired by a play which was being performed in Paris at that time. The action takes place in a Druid Temple where Norma is the High Priestess.
This is a concert performance, without a decor, so you can concentrate on the voices and the music which are divine.
