Inspiriert von der französischen Barockoper »Psyché«, die Lully, Molière, Corneille und Quinault gemeinsam schufen, war Lockes »Psyche« ein wahres künstlerisches Feuerwerk. Sie wollte mit den Opern Kontinentaleuropas konkurrieren und verband auf luxuriöse Weise Theater, Gesang und Tanz sowie spektakuläre Bühnentechnik und atemberaubende Kulissen. Sébastien Daucé präsentiert seine großartige Rekonstruktion dieses zentralen Meisterwerks in der Geschichte der frühen englischen Oper.
