About this event
This performance is presented by the 91Èȱ¬ Symphony Orchestra and Opera Rara.
Follow the fortunes of the passionate Italian painter Salvini, who becomes infatuated with his patron’s fiancée Nelly in Bellini’s rarely performed first opera. Though written while Bellini was still a student, the indulgent, ardent and lyrical melodies are typical of the great composer. Tenor Enea Scala and ‘powerhouse mezzo soprano’ (New York Times) Daniela Barcellona lead an all-star cast in a tale of friendship, love and jealousy, conducted here by Italian specialist Daniele Rustioni.
Concert staging. Sung in Italian with English surtitles.
