Fin de l’ère Tobias Richter au Grand Théâtre de Genève. Pour clôturer cette décennie : un bal masqué de belle tenue musicale mais qui pâtit d’une mise en scène et de décors plus que ternes.

One of Teatro San Carlo’s most cherished productions of recent years, with an excellent cast of singers and a director who steered at his ease into the libretto’s erratic changes of mood and atmosphere.

Attila, Verdi’s ode to Italy (one of them), made its world première in Venice to huge bursts of patriotic feeling. “You can have the universe, but leave Italy for me!” exclaimed the Roman general Ezio, and the audience erupted. Small wonder: the opera appeared at the height of the Risorgimento, when Italy was in the process of unifying into one state.
