Franck / Dormael / Arrivabeni / Kabatu - Stradella - DVD

World premiere recording! Cesar Franck's first opera - staged for the first time!

Orchestrated by composer Luc Van Hove, from the autographic piano score manuscript. Paolo Arrivabeni conducts the Orchester & Chorus of the Opera Royal de Wallonie. Stage direction by Jaco van Dormael.
