The Enchanted Island (2011 opera)
The Enchanted Island is a pasticcio (pastiche) of music by various baroque composers that include George Frideric Handel, Antonio Vivaldi, and Jean-Philippe Rameau. It was devised and written by Jeremy Sams after The Tempest and A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare. It was created by Julian Crouch and Phelim McDermott and was premiered by the Metropolitan Opera on 31 December 2011. It stars David Daniels, Joyce DiDonato, Danielle de Niese, Luca Pisaroni and Lisette Oropesa. The popular 70-year-old Spanish tenor, Plácido Domingo, played the small, but important, part of the sea god Neptune. The following month a performance of the pasticcio was broadcast live in movie theaters across the world as part of the Metropolitan Opera Live in HD series. In late 2012 Virgin Classics released this broadcast version on DVD. The Met revived The Enchanted Island two seasons later. Daniels, de Niese, Pisaroni, and Domingo revived their roles from the premiere. Susan Graham resumed the role of Sycorax from DiDonato.
