About

Rigoletto is regarded as the first operatic masterpiece of Verdi’s mature artistic period. Its complex psychology identifies characters with different styles of music, and with an incredible variety of accents for a central figure conceived by the composer as ‘deformed and laughable, but actually passionate and full of love’. From the famous aria ‘La donna è mobile’, to the final horrific tragedy as the curse unfolds, the triumphant success of Rigoletto since its premiere in 1851 has endured to the present day.

Modern staging by the Italian director Davide Livermore.

Outstanding cast and superb interpretation, in particular the baritone Luca Salsi and the soprano Enkeleda Kamani who is a very pleasant revelation.

‘A powerful show… The musical reading of the conductor Riccardo Frizza is one of the most moving and at the same time respectful of the Verdi score that I have ever heard.’ – OperaLibera

‘Enkeleda Kamani sings with a precise line, beautiful legate and pleasant timbre and interprets with natural elegance in phrasing.’ – OperaClick

‘About Luca Salsi, a refined interpreter of a Verdi finally represented in his true musical environment… Enkeleda Kamani, a highly refined soprano, dedicated to intonation like few others, capable of complex agility and breaths, winds, of the highest lineage… Compact and unexpectedly powerful voice, that of Javier Camarena, a Duke perhaps less drawn but true, terribly true. Unaware, he artfully reaches the most beautiful high notes of the entire score.’ – Musica
