Roi de Lahore
Massenet's exotic opera set in India and based on a story from the Mahabharata. Alim, the King of Lahore, is slain in battle and succeeded by Scindia, his rival in love for priestess Sita. But the god Indra takes pity on Alim and lets him return to earth as a beggar to win back Sita. She kills herself to avoid the evil Scindia, but in doing so, she and Alim are reunited in heaven. Stephanie Hughes , in conversation with Richard Langhanr Smith, presents this performance, recorded last December at the newly restored opera house of La Fenice in Venice.
