In L’heure espagnole, the time has come for Torquemada to repair the municipal timepieces. His wife has arranged a quick tryst with her lover but her timing is off as two more men show up. Pressed for time, she is determined to be satisfied, but with whom – the poet, the banker or the labourer? Ravel’s first opera is a charming conversation piece underpinned by dazzling and exotic orchestration that was ahead of its time.

Time has run out for the rich Buoso Donati. When the recently deceased relatives realise they will all be disinherited, they concoct an illegal scheme with the eponymous lawyer to rewrite his will and redistribute the wealth. What could possibly go wrong? Time flies and melodies flow in Puccini’s Gianni Schicchi, a tautly woven, fastpaced farce which is perhaps the finest and funniest one-act opera ever written.

Royal Academy Opera: L'heure espagnole / Gianni Schicchi by Ravel, Puccini, From (2021/2021), Directed by Stephen Barlow, Stephen Barlow,, Conductor Alice Farnham, Royal Academy of Music, London, United Kingdom
