Il barbiere di Siviglia by Rossini, mer 13 feb 2019, Da (2019/2019), Diretto da Laurent Pelly,, Direttore d'orchestra Marc Minkowski, Marc Leroy-Calatayud, Grand-Théâtre, Bordeaux, Francia

Il Barbiere di Siviglia is the most famous of Rossini's operas (1816) and the pinnacle of Italian opera-bouffe. Inspired by the eponymous play by Beaumarchais – the first part of a trilogy, Le Roman de la famille Almaviva , of which Le Mariage de Figaro is the second part – it is an absolute hit in the repertoire, a frantic succession of anthology pieces. For this new production, the director Laurent Pelly makes the protagonists evolve in an astonishing scenography made up of pages of music, brilliantly exploiting all the resources of this setting. A new production that offers two extremely different but equally remarkable casts: a castof "prestige", led by the Bordeaux baritone Florian Sempey, new star of French singing, and another who is betting on discovery, bringing together young talents already spotted on the biggest international stages (Adèle Charvet, Anas Séguin, Elgan Llŷr Thomas).
