Mercury Baroque Ensemble performs

Mercury Baroque Ensemble fills University of Houston-Clear Lake’s Bayou Theater with the magical sounds of composer Henry Purcell’s opera, “Dido and Aeneas,” Sunday, May 18, 2 p.m.

Based on the fourth book of Virgil’s Aenied about the legendary Queen of Carthage Dido and her love interest, the Trojan refugee Aeneas, the opera was first performed in the late 17th century. Mercury Baroque adapted this program to the group’s baroque performing style.

General admission tickets are available ahead of time for $10 or at the door for $12. Discounts are available for those holding a UH-Clear Lake I.D. For more information, call the Office of Student Life, 281-283-2560, or visit http://www.uhcl.edu/culturalarts.
