Approved

The famous Finnish director, playwright, actor Kari Heiskanen was the "find" of Evgeny Kolobov. The maestro saw his production of "Country Honour" and "Pagliacci" at the Savonlinna Opera Festival. The style of the modernist director conquered with his innovation. Then the idea arose to invite the Finn to the Novaya Opera to stage another version of both operas for Moscow.

Verism, which began with this mascagni opera, literally means "authenticity." That is, in opera, everything is like in life, only singing, not talking. And Heiskanen's directorial decisions are extremely vital and convincing and contrast especially clearly with the unearthly beauty of the music interpreted by maestro E. Kolobov.

Enchanting from the first bars, Mascagni's music is a real discovery for music lovers: bright memorable melodies and like "sobbing" climaxes, magnificent choral numbers and ensembles.

The director brought to the production many plastic episodes, with his expression emphasizing the emotionality of the performance.

A year later, on April 28, 2002, P. Mascagni's opera was joined by R. Leoncavallo's Pagliacci (the same production group), restoring the repertoire unity accepted in the West. Both one-act operas are performed in our theater on the same evening.
