Benjamin Britten's Second Opera ‘The Rape of Lucretia’

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  24 March 2010

Extract

Next July will bring the first production of Benjamin Britten's second opera, ‘The Rape of Lucretia,’ to a libretto by Ronald Duncan. This will be a full-length opera in two acts. It will be presented for a short festival season at the Glyndebourne Opera House, after which it will be performed in various provincial cities, perhaps later in London and, it is hoped, on the Continent.
