Il Trovatore

Synopsis

Giuseppe Verdi’s Il trovatore is said to be one of Verdi’s musical masterpieces – full of emotions and expressive melodies, the paragon of Italian romantic opera but also a formidable challenge for the singers. This production from the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino is brought to vivid life by directing veteran Cesare Lievi with sets and costumes by Luigi Perego. Young Mongolian baritone Amartuvshin Enkhbat caused a first international stir winning the audience prize of the International Singing Competition “BBC Cardiff Singer of the World” in 2015. In the role of Count di Luna he is “the triumphant winner of the opening night.” (Giornale della musica). Ekaterina Semenchuck as Azucena – “admirable from the first to the last note.” (OperaClick.com) – is joined by the accomplished Verdian interpreters Fabio Sartori as the titular troubadour Manrico and María José Siri as Leonora. Zubin Mehta conducts Chorus and Orchestra of the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino.
