Un ballo in maschera by Verdi, sab 30 lug 2022, Da (2022/2022), Diretto da Alexander Niclasson,, Direttore d'orchestra Lorenzo Coladonato

Giuseppe Verdi based the Masquerade Ball on a libretto that revolves around the murder of Gustav III in 1792. But after opposition from Italian censorship, the plot was instead transferred to Boston and the Swedish regent was replaced by an American governor. The masquerade ball has been played in different versions in Sweden in recent decades. When Opera på Skäret now sets up the opera, it will be in a highly dramatic blue-yellow version, with Gustav III in focus and the plot set in the opera and the court in Stockholm.
