Inhalt: |
Francesco Cilea's Gloria, performed here in its 1932 revised edition, takes as its theme the ultimately tragic story of two lovers caught up in a conflict in 14th-century Siena. The libretto is based on Victorien Sardou's pIay La Haine (Hatred) and the opera features Cilea's refined orchestral writing inspired by the Russian and French schooIs, with vocaI lines that are varied and rewarding. Opera Today caIled this production 'musically magical', while Operawire.com extolIed the inventive and convincing staging along with Francesco Cilluffo's compeIIing musicaI direction. |
