Ariodante (1996) - TV Movie
The English National Opera first mounted David Alden’s production of Ariodante, one of Handel’s greatest masterpieces, in 1993. It met with unanimous critical and popular acclaim, and this 1996 revival features many of the leading singers from the original production. Ariodante is Handel’s 1735 setting of an episode from Ariosto, in which the King of Scotland’s daughter is treacherously accused of infidelity to her promised husband. (Letterboxd)

Your probable score
?
Combining a concert film with a making-of documentary, this presentation provides a dramatization of Franz Schubert’s famed song cycle along with a unique look at the collaborative process in bringing the production to the screen. Tenor Ian Bostridge vocalizes the part of the wanderer from Wilhelm Müller’s poems (on which the cycle is based), with Julius Drake accompanying him on piano and David Alden directing. (Letterboxd)
