CGiii Comment

Pale Shadows is told through the eyes of a young storyteller. She reveals the story of Bradamante who travels to a magical island to reclaim her lost lover from the siren Alcina. This is a rich visionary approach to Handel's opera Alcina, set against a contemporary world which explores the intrigue and turmoil of love.
