“O mio babbino caro...” No-one wrote a lovesong quite like Puccini, but in the farcical world of Gianni Schicchi, nothing is quite as it seems. A sparking, screwball tale of scheming, bickering relatives, a lawyer and of young love, it’s a comedy with a huge heart. We’ve got a huge star to prove it, too: the one and only Sir Bryn Terfel, supported by some of the very best young singers in Europe today from the European Opera Centre for this dramatised performance. To set the scene, Domingo and the Orchestra provide some of opera’s most glorious orchestral intermezzos.
