Dalliance, deceit and dastardly blackmail are all in the air at the rococo palace of Versailles, where the Danish composer Poul Schierbeck's only opera Fête Galante unfolds its colourful plot.

Schierbeck's opera maintains an exquisite musical balance between the lyrical and the comic, and this recording brings new life to Schierbeck's tuneful music with a strong cast of Nordic singers, accompanied by the Danish National Symphony Orchestra and Michael Schønwandt.
