Description
Symphonic concert and opera concert
In a village in the Basque countryside, Adina is courted by Sergeant Belcore and the shy Nemorino. But the young woman prefers to escape into the world of the novel *Tristan and Iseult*.
The arrival of a travelling salesman – Doctor Dulcamara – who claims to have discovered a certain love potion, is set to cause quite a stir in this small community.
Composed in record time – fourteen days! – *L’Élixir d’amour* was an instant triumph, a success that was to endure. Today, the work stands as one of the jewels of bel canto.
