Performer: Viktor Antipenko

A fine ensemble cast brings Puccini's triptych of one-acters to the Sydney Opera House stage, with stand-out performances from Lauren Fagan, Viktor Antipenko, Simon Meadows and Angela Hogan.

The second installment in The Atlanta Opera's first-ever Ring Cycle benefits from the committed performances of veteran Wagnerians like Christine Goerke and Greer Grimsley.
