Opera - Performance of the Galli Theatre Lyric Season on the occasion of the death centenary of the Maestro

On Friday 11 October, on the occasion of the centenary of Giacomo Puccini's death, Rimini pays tribute to the composer with the opera 'La rondine' by the Maderna-Lettimi Conservatory, having chosen this ironic and brilliant work for the European project ‘Casta Diva’, with which twelve national institutions celebrate women as represented in Italian musical theatre. 'La rondine' represents a unicum in Puccini's operatic production. Commissioned by the Carltheater in Vienna in 1914, it was, however, not performed for the first time until 1917 in MonteCarlo for wartime reasons. The libretto is by Giuseppe Adami, adapted and translated from an operetta libretto by Alfred Maria Willner and Heinz Reichert. The opera contains no spoken dialogue and is described as an ‘lyric comedy’. The performance will be directed by Stefano Vizioli and will feature the young promises of the ‘Maderna-Lettimi’ Conservatory of Cesena and Rimini both on stage and in the orchestra conducted by Paolo Manetti.
