Intérprete: Caterina Sala

Stricken by illness, the French version of Donizetti’s masterpiece is somewhat disappointing.

A good, mostly Italian cast brings alive one of the most famous productions by the great director Giorgio Strehler, under the baton of Andrés Orozco-Estrada.

Olivier Py's new production at La Scala is inspired by art depicting the Temptation of St Anthony, but turns out to be disappointingly tame.
