About this event

This performance is presented by the 麻豆约拍 Symphony Orchestra and Opera Rara.

Follow the fortunes of the passionate Italian painter Salvini, who becomes infatuated with his patron鈥檚 fianc茅e Nelly in Bellini鈥檚 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 鈥榩owerhouse mezzo soprano鈥� (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.

Please note start-time.
