Veranstaltungsort: Teatro Rossini, Pesaro

Rosetta Cucchi jumps on the bandwagon with a shallow production of L’italiana in Algeri, although Daniela Barcellona’s charisma and vocal prowess dominates the scene.

Rossini’s first staged opera, La cambiale di matrimonio, in a spirited production by Laurence Dale, paired with his late work Les soirées musicales in a successful performance.

Rossini’s ill-fated farce finds new life in the intelligent and enjoyable 2019 production by Leiser and Caurier at the Rossini Opera Festival, featuring a great cast under the unwavering baton of Michele Spotti.
