Juditha Triumphans by Dutch National Opera

>> YOUR LINK HERE: ___ http://youtube.com/watch?v=0fMtKiKOKbg

The story of Juditha Triumphans comes from the apocryphal Book of Judith, chronicling the Assyrian siege of the Jewish city of Bethulia. The beautiful young widow Judith goes to the Assyrian army commander Holofernes to beg for mercy and sways him with her charms. But while he lies asleep after too much food and wine, Judith cuts off his head and returns to Bethulia triumphant. The story of her bravery inspired dramatic paintings by the likes of Giorgione, Caravaggio, Gentileschi and Allori. • SUBSCRIBE to our channel get notified when new videos are posted: http://bit.ly/YoutubeNOB • In love with BALLET?
