STEPHEN STUBBS discusses Gluck
Stephen Stubbs, conductor of Seattle Opera\u2019s upcoming ORFEO ED EURIDICE, by Gluck, joined us last year for an intermission chat when we rebroadcast Gluck\u2019s IPHIG\xc9NIE EN TAURIDE. A native Seattleite, student (and professor) at University of Washington, Stubbs has been a leader in the world of early music for three decades. Among the hundreds of recordings he has made, his 2015 DESCENTE D\u2019ORPH\xc9E AUX ENFERS (by Charpentier) won a Grammy for Best Opera Recording. He first appeared at Seattle Opera in 2007\u2019s GIULIO CESARE, playing theorbo, and conducted our first-ever presentation with music by Monteverdi, 2017\u2019s THE COMBAT. In this conversation Stubbs discusses Gluck with Christina Scheppelmann.
