On the eve of the 1986 Glyndebourne Festival, BBC2 and Glyndebourne present PETER HALL 'S outstanding production from last year's season.
Conducted by Bernard Haitink
PETER STADLEN wrote in the Daily Telegraph: A harsh, untouristy Seville of documentary veracity, ... the dilapidated buildings, the tattered clothes of the inhabitants contrasting with politely dressed bourgeois passers by ... it all provided a credible background for the producer's stunningly realistic, unglamourised view. Act 1: A square in Seville.
9.40 Act 2: Lillas Pastia's tavern
10.30 Act 3: The smugglers' hide-out in the mountains.
Act 4: Outside the bullring
