In the mood for Shakespeare

To go see Bastarda, or not to go see Bastarda? That should not even be a question. Our double production on the life of Elizabeth I put us in a Shakespearean mood. After all, the Virgin Queen's reign was also a golden age for the arts, with The Bard as one of its most famous exponents. We compiled two hours of classical music inspired by his works. Ranging from the 17th century to the end of the 20th century, from opera and songs to orchestral and film music, this playlist invites you to immerse yourself in his immortal words and characters.
