Alceste

Alceste est un opéra tragique en trois actes de Christoph Willibald Gluck, avec un livret de Marie François Louis Gand Leblanc Roullet. Basé sur la mythologie grecque, l'opéra raconte l'histoire d'Alceste, épouse dévouée d'Admète, qui offre sa vie pour sauver celle de son mari. L'opéra contient certaines des musiques les plus belles et les plus émouvantes de Gluck, et a eu une influence considérable sur le développement de l'opéra français du XIXe siècle.
