Alcina is a centerpiece of Baroque opera, a demanding role that has captivated singers and audiences since its 1735 premiere. Based on Ariosto's Orlando Furioso, this three-act opera blends virtuosic vocal writing with dance interludes and a richly theatrical libretto. As a performer page, we spotlight Alcina’s artistic heritage, notable recorded interpretations, and the upcoming appearances that bring this magical sorceress to life on stage and in concert.
