Exhibit celebrates Jean-Baptiste Lully opera Armide, about a Christian knight and Muslim princess.
Period opera company Opera Atelier and the Aga Khan Museum are collaborating on an exhibit set around a 17th-century opera.
The exhibit, on now until Sept. 27 at the Wynford Dr. museum, features set designs and models by Gerard Gauci for Opera Atelier’s production of Jean-Baptiste Lully’s Armide.
The opera, written in 1686, is about the love affair between a Christian knight and a Muslim warrior princess.
