Na unaniem lovende recensies en een nominatie voor de Nederlandse Toneelprijs komt deze innemende toneelvoorstelling terug. Na een periode van tien jaar keert Pia Douwes terug naar het podium om wederom gestalte te geven aan de legendarische operazangeres Maria Callas. Het bekroonde toneelstuk van de Amerikaanse succesauteur Terrence McNally, dat op Broadway al voor veel opschudding zorgde, brengt op indrukwekkende wijze het boeiende levensverhaal van deze beroemde zangeres tot leven. Masterclass is vanaf mei 2024 te zien.  

If you missed out on Cape Town Opera and Pieter Toerien's sold-out production of Terrence McNally's Master Class, you'll be delighted to learn that the acclaimed production returns to Theatre on the Bay from 26 to 30  September 2023 by popular demand.

You’ve got to admit that the Met had a lot of guts to dedicate this season’s performances of Vincenzo Bellini’s NORMA (libretto by Felice Romani) to the memory of Maria Callas on the 100th anniversary of her birth. Hers was simply one of the most legendary portrayals of the role, by a fabled singer. Period. But Yoncheva--and her costars--pulled off the performance with aplomb and made the Met audience very happy indeed.

New York Festival of Song, led by Artistic Director Steven Blier, will continue its 2022-2023 season with Amor on Wednesday, February 15, 2023 at 8:00pm at Merkin Hall at Kaufman Music Center.

I Capuleti e i Montecchi, opera by V. Bellini, will be performed in April at Theatro Sao Pedro. With libretto by Felice Romani, the opera is not based on Shakespeare's famous text. Staged by Antonio Araujo and musical direction by Alessandro Sangiorgi, the cast includes singers Denise de Freitas (Romeo) and Carla Cottini (Giullietta).

Lawrence Brownlee est l’un des plus brillants belcantistes de notre temps. Sa virtuosité légendaire et la beauté lumineuse de sa voix l’ont fait triompher dans Rossini, Bellini et Donizetti. Aujourd’hui il tend la main à un tout jeune artiste lui même d’une virtuosité éblouissante, le ténor sud-africain Levy Segkapane. Amateur de folies vocales, ne manquez pas ce rendez-vous rare !

Theatro Sao Pedro announces its 2022 season. The lyrical series will include eleven titles: La Serva Padrona; Livietta and Tracollo; The Capulets and the Montechios, by Bellini; West Side Story; Lecture on Waterbirds; Threepenny Opera, by Weill; Ariadne in Naxos, by Strauss; Viva La Mamma, by Donizetti and El Barberillo de Lavapies, among others.

For Vincenzo Bellini, a good libretto is one that contains ‘thrilling situations’ and verses that ‘portray the passions in the most vivid way’. That aesthetic shines through in his masterpiece, Norma, the eighth of the ten operas he composed during his short life, which is now one of the most popular in the bel canto repertoire.

Few operas are as ‘operatic’ as Norma. From the first note to the final chord, Vincenzo Bellini’s bel canto classic is a heart-rending work with fiery music, but La Monnaie’s latest production also has a surprisingly topical political dimension. La Monnaie is offering everyone aged under 30 the chance to attend the pre-dress rehearsal of this end-of-year show. You will be allocated a first or second category seat (no choice) for just 10 euros!
