Reviews from Britten Sinfonia and Opera Rara’s concert performance of Donizetti’s Il Paria, conducted by Sir Mark Elder in June 2019.
Classical Source"A winning evening: Mark Elder was a persuasive communicator and the enlarged Britten Sinfonia (three trombones and cimbasso, four off-stage trumpet and two harps to boot) obviously enjoyed its foray into the opera pit. Another Donizetti restored to the repertoire, on the forthcoming recording. Job done!"
