About
Aladdin’s story, taken from the Arabian One Thousand and One Nights, has been told many times and in many different ways. This operatic version by the Danish composer, C.F.E. Horneman, dates from the turn of the 19th to the 20th century and has the lush harmonies and flowing melodies you might expect from a piece of its time. Horneman adds new lustre to the old fairy tale about Aladdin and Princess Gulnare as they escape the forces of nocturnal magic and pursue happiness.

Record Review2nd July 2022Record of the Week
August 2022
All credit to Michael Schønwandt conducting the Danish National Symphony Orchestra and to his cast for playing and singing their socks off. As Aladdin, Bror Magnus Tødenes has the heft of a Siegfried. While his Princess, Dénise Beck, makes the most of her Act III aria, the best comes from Hanne Fischer as Aladdin’s mother Morgiane.
July 2022
It’s the chorus that often deliver the dramatic coups, invading the texture with a combination of stern ceremony and dramatic impulse.
