Gluck: Orfeo ed Euridice poster

Released in 2018, Gluck: Orfeo ed Euridice is a music film directed by François Roussillon, running about 107 minutes. “Love beyond death: inconsolable, the poet Orpheus follows his wife Eurydice to the Underworld” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. Amour, the messenger of the gods, tells Orpheus that he may descend to the underworld and return with Eurydice. His singing has the power to appease the Furies and animate the blessed Shadows. Yet, his voice cannot reassure Eurydice who despairs of the feigned indifference of Orpheus, put to the test by Jupiter. Raphaël Pichon conducts the opera of operas and Aurélien Bory displays the giddiness of the mental and supernatural spaces traveled by Orpheus and beyond. Marianne Crebassa plays a new breeches role with Hélène Guilmette (Hélène in Le Timbre d’argent) and Lea Desandre (the title role in Alcione).

Who’s in it. Gluck: Orfeo ed Euridice stars Marianne Crebassa as Orphée, Hélène Gilmette as Eurydice, Lea Desandre as Amour and François Roussillon as Conductor.
