    Glyndebourne 2013: Baroque à la française

    The role of pioneer is a familiar one for conductor William Christie. In the early 1970s, he left his native United States for France, where he would spend the next four decades applying his lively American curiosity to unearthing and rejuvenating neglected European music of the 17th and 18th centuries. On the eve of his return to Glyndebourne to conduct the company's first French Baroque opera, Cori Ellison queries him on this uncharted territory and his approach to Hippolyte et Aricie.
