       Pierre Jourdan captured Fidelio on film at the Théâtre 
        antique d'Orange in 197?. The musical direction by Zubin Mehta is 
        assured, and he conducts the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra and the chorus 
        of the New Philharmonia. 
      The bill announces: "By the power of love, liberty triumphs over 
        tyranny".

      As for the costumes worn by the actors on the posters, they are a blend 
        of history and the modern world.

        and audiovisual adaptations of tragedies and operas (Phèdre, Le
