  3. Verdi's Rigoletto


The celebrated Chisinau National Opera and Philharmonic return after their critically acclaimed tour of Aida, Nabucco and La Boheme with a stunning traditional production recapturing the decadence of Renaissance Italy with lavish sets and opulent costumes. Verdi’s masterpiece Rigoletto is a dramatic tale of the jester’s daughter whose heart is stolen by a charming but unreliable ruler – and how her father’s attempts to prevent the love affair from leading to tragedy. The opera was almost banned because it exposed the licentious behaviour of the powers-that-be at court.

Featuring the two of the most celebrated tenor arias ‘La Donna è Mobile’ and ‘Questa o Quella’ justly turned into classics by Caruso, Rigoletto is based on a play by Victor Hugo, who wrote Les Misérables.
