Does anyone have an idea where I can find a list of the arias in Farinelli and the King? I was at a performance of baroque opera arias over the weekend and am bingeing on Lascia ch'io pianga this morning, so it made me think of the upcoming production. I searched for a list of arias in the show but didn't have any luck....I think this one will be there as well as Alto Giove, but I believe there are around ten in all.

Ten? I don't remember that many. I'll give a look at the programme when I go home !

Thank you! I know things can change from production to production but I am assuming they'll be the same in NY. I am also going to see "The Exterminating Angel" at the Met so I will get to hear Davies there as well. :) Can't wait to see Mark Rylance on stage for the first time!!
