Together they will present\u00a0<em>Un Jardin \u00e0 l&#8217;italienne, (An Italian Garden),\u00a0<\/em>a\u00a0programme of rarities and favourites from the Italian Baroque operatic repertoire.<\/p>\n<p>The programme will include\u00a0a semi-staged selection of highlights from 17th and 18th Century Italian opera including\u00a0arias by Handel, Vivaldi, Scarlatti, Cimarosa and their contemporaries.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>William Christie, was born in New York in 1944. He studied at Harvard and Yale Universities and moved to France in 1971. He founded Les Arts Florissants in 1979, named after the opera by Marc-Antoine Charpentier . The orchestra pioneered the re-creation of music from the 16th to 18th centuries, reviving and popularising many forgotten masterpieces.The ensemble has created a substantial catalogue of recordings of instrumental music and operas and worked with some of the world\u2019s most revered soloists and theatre directors.<\/p>\n<p>One of Christie&#8217;s most conspicuous successes is the Jardin des Voix program for emerging Baroque singers. In this biennial programme, the singers undertake a two-week intensive at the Th\u00e9\u00e2tre de Caen in Normandie, after which they\u00a0tour in concert with the orchestra.<\/p>\n<p>tickets and bookings (02) 9250 7777 or<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sydneyoperahouse.com\/whatson\/les_arts_florissants_15.aspx\"> click here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The world-renowned period ensemble\u00a0Les Arts Florissants along with vocal ensemble Le Jardin des Voix,\u00a0returns to Australia after more than a decade.
