I Capuleti e i Montecchi (concert version): Deutsche Oper Berlin
Sobre o Evento
The sad tale of Romeo and Juliet, set in Verona, is best known as a tragedy written by William Shakespeare. Vincenzo Bellini chose this beloved story, and together with his librettist Felice Romani composed the opera titled "I Capuleti e i Montecchi".
Towards the end of the 19th century the opera faded from the stage. On the centenary Bellini's death "I Capuleti e i Montecchi" was performed again in his native city, but more than thirty years were to pass before the work was staged again in La Scala in Milan – with the part of Romeo sung by a tenor. Over the last 40 years Romeo has been sung by a string of celebrated mezzo‐sopranos. Joyce DiDonato gave her debut as Romeo to rave reviews in Paris in 2008 and reprised the role in a new production at the San Francisco Opera.
