The New National Theatre Tokyo will be presenting Donizetti's famous Opera Buffa, Don Pasquale, an exquisite example of beautiful Bel Canto opera. In the style of Opera Buffa, the classic characters include a Basso Buffo in the title role and a Soubrette Soprano in the role of Norina, while the comical storyline takes place within a day. The thrilling arias and ensemble include Norina's cavatina "Quel guardo il cavaliere" ("That look stabbed the cavalier") and Ernesto's "Cercherò lontana terra" ("I shall seek a far‑off land"), unfolding in recitativo accompagnato style accompanied by the orchestra.

The production, by director Stefano Vizioli, is a popular one, having been performed in Ravenna, Bologna, Cagliari, Genova, Oman and Trieste since its initial performance at the Teatro all Scala di Milano in 1994. This brilliant production shines with contemporary sensibilities in its delicate psychological expressiveness and how it unfolds scene by scene.

One of the world's most popular bass singers, Michele Pertusi, makes his debut with the New National Theatre Tokyo in one of his most acclaimed roles, Don Pasquale. Norina is performed by rising star Lavinia Bini, Ernesto by Juan Francisco Gatell, who received lavish praise for his sultry voice as Don Ottavio in Don Giovanni and Malatesta by Kamie Hayato, boasting outstanding vocal technique. This production brings audiences a remarkable performance with the delight of Bel Canto opera performed by a phenomenal cast of singers.

オペラの華であるベルカント・オペラから、ドニゼッティのオペラ・ブッファの代表作『ドン・パスクワーレ』を上演します。オペラ・ブッファの様式に則って、バッソ・ブッフォのタイトルロール、スープレット・ソプラノのノリーナといったキャラクターの登場人物がコミカルな物語を繰り広げる構成で、ノリーナのカヴァティーナ「あの騎士の眼差しは」、エルネストの「遥かなる土地を求めて」など魅力的なアリアや、声の妙技が堪能できるアンサンブルが次々に展開します。
ヴィツィオーリ演出のプロダクションは、ミラノ・スカラ座、ラヴェンナ、ボローニャ、カリアリ、ジェノヴァ、オマーン、トリエステなど各地で上演されている人気プロダクション。オーソドックスながら繊細な心理表現や効果的なシーン展開といった現代的な感性が光る秀逸な演出です。
世界随一の人気バス歌手ミケーレ・ペルトゥージが得意のドン・パスクワーレ役で待望の新国立劇場初登場。ノリーナに新星ラヴィニア・ビーニ、エルネストには『ドン・ジョヴァンニ』ドン・オッターヴィオで甘い美声が絶賛されたフランシスコ・ガテル、マラテスタには抜群の技術を誇る上江隼人が出演。圧倒的豪華歌手陣により、ベルカント・オペラの楽しさあふれる極上の上演をお届けします。
