Mario Martone’s new production is inconsistent, while the musical performance is hindered by lacklustre conducting and a miscast prima donna. 

Mario Martone’s 2011 production, revived this season by Federica Stefani. fairly stands the test of time in Milan. 

Chiara Muti's new production departs from the serene Swiss landscapes of valleys and mountains to depict a gloomy, dystopian world. 

Conductor Michele Gamba gives a very personal interpretation of Rigoletto, in an intelligent new production by Mario Martone, which seals a great success for the trio of principal singers, Amartuvshin Enkhbat, Nadine Sierra and Piero Pretti.

Riccardo Frizza conducts a complete version of Donizetti’s masterpiece, with the debuts of Maria Agresta in the title role, Carmela Remigio as Giovanna Seymour and René Barbera as Percy.
