One of the world’s great love stories, Aida was composed by Giuseppe Verdi in 1870 for Cairo’s oldest opera house which was constructed in celebration of the opening of the Suez Canal. The masterfully written libretto transports you to the time of the Pharaohs, where all of humanity’s conflicting emotions erupt on stage: the quest for happiness, dashing betrayal, guilt, duty, freedom, and brilliance.

This outstanding production of Aida with a cast of over 150 including orchestra, chorus, and multimedia sets by Helikon Opera, the largest and one of the most internationally renowned opera theaters in Russia. They’ve more than 10 Golden Masks among other awards, and Artistic Director Dmitry Bertman is recognized as Russia’s top opera stage director. 

The performance will be led by 3 world-class singers Elena Mikhailenko, Aleksey Isaev, and Ivan Gyngazov who performed recently at world’s major venues such as Royal Opera House, London; Wiener Staatsoper, Vienna; Teatro National de Sao Carlos, Lisbon, and Sydney Opera House.  

Aesthetically rich, narratively tense and musically impeccable, the experience of Aida is as much a world wonder as the great pyramids of Egypt.

Aida by Verdi, From (2023/2024), Directed by Dmitry Bertman,, Conductor Valery Kiryanov, Thailand Cultural Center, Bangkok, Thailand
