A gallery of images from the Cantanti Project‘s recent production of Giulio Caccini’s EURIDICE. The photos are by Lucas Godlewski of LGod Photography. Read about the performance here, and about a rehearsal that I got to watch here.
Often referred to as “the first opera”, Caccini’s EURIDICE is a take on the classic story of Orfeo, the mythic singer who descends to the Underworld to rescue his beloved Euridice. Caccini gives us a happy ending: a triumph of love over death.
