EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures a pivotal moment from Giacomo Meyerbeer's renowned opera, "Dinorah," first performed in 1859. In this dramatic scene, the eponymous heroine, Dinorah, portrayed by the esteemed soprano Henri Laurent, finds herself in peril as a large branch from a tree in the Covent Garden storm snaps off and threatens to send her plunging into the raging flood below. The ominous backdrop of the tempestuous weather, complete with lightning strikes, adds to the intensity of the situation. The audience is left on the edge of their seats, holding their breath as Dinorah clings to the tree with all her might, her eyes wide with fear and determination. This powerful moment encapsulates the emotional depth and thrilling drama that Meyerbeer's opera is known for, making it an enduring favorite in the world of classical music and theater.
