Rodelinda – Opera Neo 2024

Rodelinda by G. F. Handel

Handel's Rodelinda was one of the most popular operas of its time, with sumptuous music and tense, fast-paced drama. Rodelinda's husband, Bertarido, is the rightful king, but his throne has been usurped by Grimoaldo with the help of his treacherous ally, Garibaldo. Forced into exile, Bertarido leaves behind his wife and young son, only to return in disguise after faking his own death. Handel’s brilliant music brings to vivid life the intricate twists and turns of this riveting plot.

Performed at First Unitarian Universalist Church of San Diego in Hillcrest, Handel's drama is reimagined by director Sydney Roslin, with Peter Kozma leading Opera Neo's period instrument orchestra.

Doors open at 7:00pm.
