Before Turandot and Tosca, there was Le Villi. Puccini’s first opera is a sumptuous supernatural melodrama: a story of seasons, spirits and a love stronger than death – and as you’d expect from Puccini, it’s bursting with glorious melodies. The fabulous Ermonela Jaho heads an all-Italian cast in this rare concert performance, the first hearing in 120 years for Puccini’s original 1884 version, Le Willis. And under the direction of one of our finest living opera conductors, Sir Mark Elder, it should be a revelation. Emotionally charged music by Bizet and Verdi launches an evening of opera at its most intoxicating. Experience it live.
In association with Opera Rara.
