Bowing for the first time on the War Memorial Opera House stage, Italian tenor Francesco Demuro is the rakish Duke of Mantua, who pretends to be a student in order to seduce Gilda and whose Act III aria "La donna è mobile" is one of opera's most famous melodies. Italian bass Andrea Silvestrelli is the assassin Sparafucile, former San Francisco Opera Adler Fellow mezzo Kendall Gladen is Sparafucile's daughter, Maddalena, and Canadian bass Robert Pomakov is Count Monterone. Conducting the composer's propulsive 1851 score, former Music Director Nicola Luisotti leads the San Francisco Opera Orchestra, and Chorus Director Ian Robertson prepares the San Francisco Opera Chorus for the work's ensemble moments. Rigoletto is performed in Italian with English subtitles and has an approximate running time of 2 hours, 7 minutes.
