Opera Easy. Norma
Description
"If I tell you that today's Opera Easy is set in Ancient Gaul and features a conquering horde of Roman legionnaires," says host Natalie Choquette, "you might think that someone has written an opera on the comic strip Asterix and Obelix - but you'd be wrong. No, today's featured work does include Roman centurions but is centered on one of the most remarkable characters in all of 19th-century opera who gave her name to this opera. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the Druid priestess Norma."
