Scenes and arias from Sergei Prokofiev’s opera The Love for Three Oranges
Legend has it that King Arthur’s stepsister, spurned by her beloved Sir Lancelot, was driven to the seabed where she lives in a magical crystal palace and has been deceiving sailors and travellers with ghostly visions and mirages ever since. The tricks of this heroine from the Breton epos are myriad and inventive, her name in translation from Italian meaning “Morgan the Fairy”. The famous ship The Flying Dutchman – a ghost ship that may be seen by sailors even today – is nothing other than a product of her imagination and sorcery. Many people have seen wonderful palaces and armies of thousands of men in the sky, drawn there by her. Morgan the Fairy is always unpredictable and unexpected.
