Albéniz ; Merlin times new roman, times, serif" Enjoy the world premiere of the full and original version of Merlin by Isaac Albéniz, over a century after he completed the work. Albéniz composed this Wagnerian opera to an English libretto by his patron Francis Burdett Money-Coutts between 1898 and 1902. Many believed the score was lost, until the conductor José De Eusebio reconstructed it from various manuscript sources and publishers proofs. For this stunning production director John Drew created a world of magic and fantasy, using evocative sets, and splendid lighting.
