Biglietti esauriti
This program will sound familiar to many people: a choice of highlights from the soprano and baritone verismo repertoires including Leoncavallo’s, Cilea’s, and Mascagni’s warhorses, combined with a selection from Puccini — one of the fêted centennials is his — mixing the well-known with the lesser-known. The latter is drawn in particular from his early opera, Le Villi, composed in full verismo climate.
