La Bohème by Puccini, to. 10 mars 2022, Fra (2022/2022), I regi av Richard Studer,, Dirigent Jonathan Lyness, The Hafren, Newtown, United Kingdom

It’s Christmas Eve and high above the streets of Paris a knock at the door begins the timeless love story of poet Rodolfo and his neighbour Mimi. Their fairytale romance feels like a Christmas miracle, but even the warmth of their love can’t defeat the winter chill – Mimi is desperately ill, and Rodolfo and his fellow bohemians can’t afford the help she needs. From a student garret to the bustling streets of Montmartre, Puccini’s masterpiece celebrates the power of love and friendship. Ensemble Cymru perform Puccini’s gloriously evocative score, with some of opera’s best loved arias conjuring Parisian cafes as well as the cold reality of the bohemians’ hand to mouth existence.
