Planning is everything!

Regardless of whether it is a matter of forging a will or the right timing of adultery - a watertight plan and the right time management are the be-all and end-all! If Concepción wanted to use the regular absence of her husband in 'The Spanish Hour' to have a pleasant time with her lover, the unplanned appearance of the virile mule
driver Ramiro and another admirer disrupts their fragile planning.

The rich Donati family in 'Gianni Schicchi', on the other hand, is certain: the death of the elder Buoso is a bitter stroke of fate that has to be mourned in a well-planned way. But the secret opening of the will, which reveals to the bereaved that they all miss out on the inheritance, unleashes criminal energies in the relatives, which the shrewd upstart Gianni Schicchi knows how to skillfully exploit for himself.

The two short operas sparkle with esprit and situation comedy - two intimate plays, sometimes touching, sometimes macabre, but always turbulent. And with Puccini's 'O mio babbino caro' the most beautiful suicide threat in music history can be experienced.
