A live stream from the Deutschen Oper Berlin: Christof Loy, one of music theater's most meticulous directors, stages Riccardo Zandonai's opulent Francesca da Rimini.It's a story of forbidden love, sibling rivalry and two murders. Zandonai, celebrated in his day as a rival to Puccini, composed this bloody episode from Dante's Divine Comedy as a kind of Tristan and Isolde remake stationed somewhere between verismo and impressionism. The acclaimed Sara Jakubiak sings the title role, and Carlo Rizzi conducts.

Francesca da Rimini by R. Zandonai, from and performed at Deutsche Oper Berlin, 2021. Director Chistof Loy, conductor Carlo Rizzi, starring Sara Jakubiak, Alexandra Hutton, Samuel Dale Johnson, Ivan Inverardi, Jonathan Tetelman, Malatestino dall'Occhio, Meechot Marrero, Mané Galoyan, Arianna Manganello, Karis Tucker and Amira Elmadfa. Performed in Italian.

Riccardo Zandonai’s Francesca da Rimini is a four-act opera set during the Renaissance period. The plot concerns an arranged marriage between Francesca and Giovanni, also known as Gianciotto, who is impersonated by his handsome brother Paolo, and with whom Francesca falls passionately in love. Sometimes referred to as the ‘Italian Tristan’, the opera ends in betrayal and a double murder. The production of this rarely performed opera from the Deutsche Oper Berlin proved to be a huge critical success.
