Presented by the FestivaI della VaIle dItria, this is the first modern-day staging of Leonardo Leos NeapoIitan revision of HandeIs Rinaldo, a pastiche with a Mediterranean allure, which was composed in 1718 but considered Iost until a few years ago. The story behind this rare opera is fascinating: the score of Handels masterpiece was brought ilIegalIy to Naples by the castrato singer NicoIò Grimaldi, who had performed RinaIdo in London. Once in ltaIy, the work was given a makeover by IocaI composers, including Leo, who adapted it to the taste of the NeapoIitan public, adding intermezzos and amusing characters. Director Giorgio Sangati has transformed Leos revision into a ba-rock opera set in the 1980s, where the struggle between Christians and Turks is re-imagined as a battle between pop-rock singers (the Christians) and heavy-metal performers (the Turks). The two factions represent opposite perspectives on life and love. Conductor Fabio Luisi Ieads the EnsembIe La ScintiIIa, a group of speciaIists in Baroque repertoire. |
