Opera Barga - Lucca |
|
| Description : |
Opera Barga Festival first came to be in 1967 thanks to the efforts of Peter and Gillian Hunt, respectively actor and set designer who had emigrated to the small town of Barga (LU) Italy only a few years earlier. The discovery of the baroque Teatro dei Differenti inspired them to set up courses for young singers and musicians with the intent of putting on smaller, lesser known operas of the baroque period together with more modern and even contemporary compositions.
