Madison Opera: Faust May 15, 2009

In the most popular setting of Goethe's dramatic deal with the devil, this monumental tale is nowhere better served than by Gounod's soaring melodies and luscious orchestration in this true "grand" opera. French conductor, Laurent Campellone returns to Madison Opera to lead an international cast featuring tenor David Lomeli as Faust, soprano Jill Gardner as Marguerite and David Pittsinger as Mephistopheles, in a production by acclaimed director Bernard Uzan.
