This is the story of the beautiful courtesan Silvia, who after countless suitors has declared herself single, and the itinerant musician Zanetto, who, despite Silvia's declaration, sweeps her legs out from under her. This is also the story of misunderstood and unattainable love and the overriding class differences of the time. For the first time in Denmark, this 127-year-old one-act opera by Pietro Mascagni is being performed.

The two roles are handled by Kristel Vinter Knudsen, who was born and raised in Nørresundby, after which she went out into the world with her beautiful, big voice, and Emma Roberts, who studies at the prestigious National Opera Studio in London. With them on grand piano, they have Alex Norton, whose evocative accompaniment cannot be avoided.

Look forward to this Danish premiere in the old town hall in Nørresundby.

English

Dette er historien om den smukke hofdame Silvia, der efter utallige bejlere har erklæret sig som single og den omvandrende musiker Zanetto, der, på trods af Silvias erklæring, fejer benene væk under hende. Dette er også historien om misforstået og uopnåelig kærlighed og datidens altoverskyggende klasseforskelle. For første gang i Danmark opføres denne 127 år gamle en-akters opera af Pietro Mascagni.

De to roller varetages af Kristel Vinter Knudsen, der er født og opvokset i Nørresundby, hvorefter hun med sin smukke, store stemme drog ud i verden og Emma Roberts, der studerer på det prestigefyldte National Opera Studio i London. Med sig på flygel har de Alex Norton, hvis stemningsfulde akkompagnement ikke er til at komme udenom.

Glæd jer til denne danmarkspremiere i det gamle rådhus i Nørresundby.
