Great opera returns to the Incontro Theatre in Pinerolo with the 7th season of Pinerolo at the Opera.
Four evenings, six operas, a single theme: love, explored in all its infinite nuances.
• 20 November: Norma by Bellini. Who isn’t familiar with the immortal notes of Casta diva? It is the drama of a woman torn between duty and emotion, between the sacred and the profane, consumed by a love she cannot confess
• 13 February: L’elisir d’amore by Donizetti. From the emotions of Una furtiva lagrima emerges the most tender face of love: that which is born of hope, amidst shyness, anticipation and the fear of not being loved in return
• 13 March: Cavalleria rusticana by Mascagni and Suor Angelica by Puccini. From the famous Intermezzo, a universal symbol of passion and tragedy, to Senza mamma, one of the most moving pieces in the operatic repertoire, dedicated to a mother’s absolute love
• 10 April: Puccini’s Gianni Schicchi and Pergolesi’s La serva padrona. From O mio babbino caro, Lauretta’s famous prayer, to Stizzoso, mio stizzoso, Serpina’s witty aria, love takes the form of smiles, wit and irresistible theatrical playfulness
