Performing a new production of ardent Shakespeare-devotee Verdi's early-period iconic opera, Macbeth. A commemorative work that breaks new ground as a dramatic opera and features sinister music full of dramatic suspense, this stately opera depicts the psychology of Lord and Lady Macbeth--pushing the ambition, suspicion, scheming and confusion arising from a fateful prophecy to their ultimate limits.
Directed by Lorenzo Mariani, an undisputed Italian opera authority, and conducted by Carlo Rizzi, one of the most respected figures in the world of Italian opera. Macbeth is portrayed by Ernesto Petti, who has been highly acclaimed for his Verdian roles.
