Opera & Ballet

Agnese

Comicality, action and a happy ending for the opera by Ferdinando Paer in its first modern performance. Diego Fasolis conducts the Orchestra and Chorus at the Regio. Leo Muscato directs the new production

Rigoletto

Teatro Regio continues and completes its dedication to Giuseppe Verdi's popular trilogy with Rigoletto, an opera that, since 1851, has continued to disturb the sensitivity of spectators due to the coarseness of its themes and the ambivalence of its protagonist, at the same time a very tender father and a cruel executioner.

La giara

Defying the censorship of the time like never before, Verdi stages a drama full of humanity, bringing to life a unique figure in the world of opera. A tragedy that brutally underscores the love of a father for his daughter which is crushed by the cynicism of society.

Pinocchio

A great Italian classic becomes an opera thanks to a composer and a librettist who are both Italian. And it met with success in European theatres, with Germany in the lead. All the magic of Collodi’s text is poured into the music of Valtinoni, bringing to life a show that has as protagonist a real puppet.

Agnese

The first performance in modern times of an opera and a composer that warrant rediscovery. Admired by Chopin and Berlioz, Agnese by Paer conquered theatres all over Europe and the world in only a few years, in the same period that Rossini’s fame was growing. Great emotion and entertainment together with splendid music.

Rigoletto

Defying the censorship of the time like never before, Verdi stages a drama full of humanity, bringing to life a unique figure in the world of opera. A tragedy that brutally underscores the love of a father for his daughter which is crushed by the cynicism of society.
