Performer: Leo Muscato

For La Scala’s prima, outstanding vocal performances light up a busy but interesting staging of Verdi’s revenge opera by Leo Muscato.

An excellent cast and smart, engaged direction make for an auspicious season launch in San Francisco Opera’s production of one of Verdi’s most sophisticated creations.  

The singer-actors of this lively Neapolitan opera are entangled in a farcical plot in the Teatro alla Scala's revival of the genre.
