Experience an evening of spellbinding drama and exquisite music as MSU Opera presents a unique operatic double feature: Purcell’s Dido & Aeneas paired with Handel’s Alcina.
Journey to Carthage for Dido & Aeneas, Purcell’s masterpiece of passion and fate, culminating in one of opera’s most heartbreaking laments. Then, lose yourself in the sorcery and deception of Alcina, where the enchantress’s illusions unravel in a tale of love, betrayal, and transformation—distilled to bring you some of Handel’s most mesmerizing music.
Two iconic operas, one unforgettable night. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience the magic of Baroque opera in a thrilling double-feature in C-Minor Recital Hall.
