LA STAGIONE
PRESENTAZIONE
This year’s opera season features nine works with something for every taste and age: the classic greats, contemporary opera, baroque favorites, but even selected works for children. From the nineteenth-century classic melodramas, Madama Butterfly by Giacomo Puccini and A Masked Ball by Giuseppe Verdi, and less represented masterpieces such as Mefistofele by Boito and Tannhäuser by Wagner, to works from the twentieth century with the symbolist score such as Pelléas et Mélisande by Debussy. Antonio Vivaldi’s Tamerlano will offer the occasion to relive the Baroque work through an interpretation by Ottavio Dantone with the Byzantine Academy which catapults the ancient performance to today’s world. Profezia will be the very first performance commissioned by the Teatro Comunale to Matteo D’Amico and Sandro Cappelletto, two of the most celebrated Italian writers, on the centennial of the birth of Pier Paolo Pasolini. The Opera House will also feature two works dedicated to young people: Giovanni Sollima’s The Jungle Book, one of the most performed contemporary Italian composers in the world, and Gioachino Rossini’s Cinderella in a musical and dramaturgical adaptation that AsLiCo has dedicated to the younger audiences.
This year will feature a number of world renown singers on the international stage, such as James Kee, Corby Welch, Monica Bacelli, Giorgio Berrugi, Devid Cecconi and Maria Teresa Leva, but also emerging stars who have finished their specialization programs from the Opera House and the Vecchi-Tonelli Music Conservatory, such as Simon Lim, Shay Bloch, Eleonora Filipponi, Vincenzo Tremante and Francesca Mercuriali. Vittoria Yeo, a former student of Raina Kabaivanska, and well known today after her success as Joan of Arc last season, will return as Madama Butterfly in the new production by the Luciano Pavarotti Opera House.
After the forced interruption of the Covid emergency, with the new season, our esteemed guests will once again enjoy the thrill of experiencing these unique performances at our world famous Opera House.
Subscriptions are being offered with three formulas: seven, four and three events.
As in previous years, the series of encounters “Invitation to the Opera”, organized in collaboration with Amici dei Teatri Modenesi, will present the works on the opera season to the public and will host some of the greatest musicologists and music critics such as Enrico Stinchelli, Susanna Franchi, Oreste Bossini, Sandro Cappelletto, Alberto Mattioli, Guido Barbieri and Emilio Sala.
