Elisabeth disapproved of the ‘overblown sound’ of Gustav Mahler and similar composers, preferring to work with sparse textures. some of her most beautiful music was written for the theatre, in particular her collaborations with director Minos Volanakis on new productions of ancient Greek plays such as euripides’s The Bacchae. In the following Aria O wär’ ich schon mit dir vereint (Oh, If I was already united with you) she explains that she’s instead madly in love with the new boy who’s arrived at the Prison to work as a handyman, Fidelio.Elsewhere, though, there were fine things: a darkly intense account of his opening aria, and a real sense of elation in the final scene.

Lutyens is remembered for her intolerance of her better-known contemporaries among English composers including Vaughan Williams, Holst, Ireland and Bax.
