Samson Et Dalila In Full Score

The most popular of the composer's dramatic works, this tragedy in three acts — based on narratives from the Old Testament's Book of Judges — tells the ancient story of the mighty warrior who is undone through the treachery of an irresistible siren. A lyric opera with attractive melodies and ballets, the work features powerful choruses, picturesque orchestrations and ravishingly beautiful parts for solo voices. The complete full score, reproduced from an authoritative French edition, will delight music and opera lovers alike.
