  Manon Lescaut Puccini's first major success is a work of impassioned emotions based on the 18th-century novel by Abb Prvost depicting the doomed infatuation of Chevalier des Grieux for beautiful fun-loving Manon. Puccini clothes the story in warmly passionate music that makes a direct appeal to the listener's emotions. This production by Graham Vick for Glyndebourne Festival Opera which was filmed in 1997 stars Romanian soprano Adina Nitescu as the ill-fated Manon American tenor Patrick Denniston as Des Grieux and Italian baritone Roberto de Candia as Lescaut. The conductor is John Eliot Gardiner.
