The story of the power-hungry Agrippina was one of Handel's greatest operatic successes. The satirical text plays on the political situation under Pope Clement XI. at. The rousing production from the Slovak National Theater Bratislava is a lively baroque opera on original instruments.
“Jan Willem de Vriend (…) knows how to achieve maximum theatrical credibility. Away with his baton and out with his violin, he pulled the orchestra out of the pit and up onto the stage, forcing the singers and instrumentalist to interact. The result was an explosion of vitality, heightened by Eva Buchmann’s stage directions: a plethora of baroque gestures for when the characters lied (often) and a few modern, realistic gestures to convey genuine feelings (sporadically). Judging by the sound of it, the musicians had a whale of a time! “
