NCCO's Donizetti's Rita
Donizetti's darkly comic one act opera Rita is the first fully staged opera presented by San Francisco's New Century Chamber Ensemble.
Double Bill to delight.
Donizetti’s one act opera, Rita, composed in 1841 formed the first half of last night’s double bill at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. The second half comprised another late work, Tchaikovsky’s Iolanta, composed in 1891 to a libretto by Tchaikovsky’s brother, Modest. Rita turns out to be far more entertaining than the plot outline promises and deserves to be more widely seen.
