Afternoon on 3 - European Summer Festivals 2007 - Episode 7

Presented by Louise Fryer. 1.00pm European Festivals If you like Mozart's Marriage of Figaro, you'll love Le nozze di Dorina by Baldassare Galuppi, most famous son of the small Venetian island of Burano, well known for its brightly-painted houses. Galuppi's brightly-painted music paints this happy tale of the machinations in the Count and Countess' household as they try to marry off their orphaned chambermaid Dorina. Plus there are side-trips to festivals in Ireland and Romania.
