Project Summary: Henry Purcell wrote an opera – Dido and Aeneas – England’s oldest opera. You can find performances on YouTube. The one with Maria Ewing as Dido is one of the better ones. Watch one (or two) scenes. Dido’s death scene is particularly moving. Write a piece in the 350-500 word range that talks about the emotional differences between reading the story in the text and watching and listening to the music and acting of the film.
