    "Love shall thaw ye"

    Is all fair in love and war? This opera of halves opposed - good against evil, comedy against tragedy, illusion against truth - is a thrilling retelling of the legendary battle between Britons and Saxons. Told through indelible compositions and masterful writing, King Arthur is a peerless masterpiece of Restoration opera that has lost none of its potency, wit and allure in its wintry fable of love and dark magic.
