Opera Rara UK - Offenbach: La Princesse de Trebizonde - A travelling circus, an innocent prince in love with a waxwork and a lottery ticket to win a magnificent castle... What can possibly go wrong? The delightful opera La Princesse de Trébizonde is packed with earworm melodies and irresistible joie-de-vivre characteristic of Offenbach's musical style. - Following the award-winning releases of Fantasio (2015) and Vert-Vert (2009), Opera Rara presents it's 4th complete opera recording by Jacques Offenbach, a composer considered the father of the operetta and whose pioneering work influenced greatly many composers in the 20th century. - Conductor Paul Daniel leads an all-star cast including Virginie Verrez and Anne-Catherine Gillet in this premiere recording of Jean-Christophe Keck's critical edition. This marks the company's first Offenbach recording project since the release of Fantasio in 2014
