Jonathan Dove The Adventures of Pinocchio
Sadlers Wells Thetare, London February 2008 Broadcast Monday 24 March 2008
Catherine Bott presents The Adventures of Pinocchio - a new opera from composer Jonathan Dove and librettist Alasdair Middleton, based on the story by Carlo Collodi.
Young Pinocchio meets many colourful characters in his adventures - a cat and a fox (the baddies!) a cricket, a beautiful blue fairy and a giant green fisherman. He joins the circus, gets sold, eaten and roasted alive, and even has time to go to school - not bad for a little boy made of wood.
Opera North's production has been acclaimed by audiences and critics alike. Victoria Simmonds, who plays the title role will be in the studio with Catherine Bott to talk about her experience of performing this new opera and the very active role of Pinocchio!

We sell only opera recordings. The recordings are sent to you in paper sleeves with no tray card or inserts, just the raw discs with printed labels. These recordings are of nonprofessional quality that are in the public domain. The quality of these old opera recordings is not very good and they are meant for collectors and educational purposes only. Most of them are 30 or 40 years old, so they might be blurry, colors faded, and not sound very good, but they might not be available elsewhere. Please note that most of our recordings do not have tracks, they have 1 long track per disc.
