About the Event
Clérambault’s “Medée” stands at the absolute pinnacle of the French cantata repertoire. The antiheroine of Greek tragedy comes to life in this gripping dramatic portrait through vivid musical sequences depicting her conflicting emotions after her betrayal by her husband, the hero Jason. She vows revenge, summoning demons to her aid in a terrifying “Invocation” and sends them to destroy everything in a bravura final aria. Molly Netter’s gorgeous singing is imbued here with a visceral commitment to the character she portrays, making this film one of House of Time’s proudest achievements to date.
