Francesco Cavalli's opera live at the Palais Garnier, Paris on September 14, 2016
2016 · 2h 30m · Drama, History
Systematically overturning accepted morals, Elagabalus dresses men as women, and names women to the Senate, favours sinning servants and humiliates generals. Baroque and carnivalesque, Eliogabalo is not, however, an opera that advocates a return to order.
Director: Thomas Jolly
Music by: Francesco Cavalli
