Handel: Tamerlano

Art Haus Musik

Recorded live from the 50th Handel-Festpiele 2001, Halle on the Saale.

Directed by Helga Dubnyicsek

"One of the reasons, why we do these works from the past, is to have the opportunity of visiting the sensibility of the past. Now, I don't think this means that you have to go back to the world that Tamerlane or Timur came from. I think you have to go back to the world, in which the 18th century visualized someone like Timur or Tamerlane. "
-Jonathan Miller
the stage director of Tamerlano
