Approved

"L'elisir d'amore" is a masterpiece by Gaetano DONIZETTI, best known for his bel canto operas. It is the story of Nemorino, a youth who hears the story of how a potion made Tristan und Isolde fall in love and sets out to woo Adina, the most beautiful woman in the village. The music itself directly conveys the characters of Nemorino, the lead character, unable to convey his love as he feels it, and of Adina whose heart is in a tumult for love. At every turn we get a real feel for DONIZETTI's skill, such as in the supreme musical moment in the opera when Nemorino sings "Una furtiva lagrima", or in the bright and distinctive Sergeant Belcore, the villain of the piece, or in Dr. Dulcamara's witty personality. The lively voice of the chorus further rouses the mood on stage. This production by Cesare LIEVI (first staged in 2009) saw the appearance of props like a 9-meter-long book and huge letters of the alphabet, and an actual-size small airplane, earning it a reputation for playfulness and on-the-mark psychological portrayals.

Charming Nemorino is sung by bel canto tenor Juan Francisco GATELL, who impressed with his dulcet voice and superb control at his NNTT debut in 2019 as Don Ottavio in "Don Giovanni". Adina is played by Jessica ASZODI whose singing and acting were highly acclaimed as Bella in "A Dream of Armageddon". A quack doctor Dulcamara will be taken on by Roberto DE CANDIA who is very popular with Japanese audiences.
