SIMON BOCCANEGRA FROM TEATRO ALLA SCALA, MILAN

TRANSMITTED VIA SATELITTE LIVE AT 7PM - THURS 29TH APRIL TICKETS NOW AVAILABLE!

Plácido Domingo plays the lead in this live broadcast of Verdi’s Simon Boccanegra from Teatro alla Scala, Milan.  Domingo, a star tenor for 50 years, transforms himself into a baritone for this role.  “A singer doesn’t sing with only one sound,” said 68-year-old Domingo.  “Like a painter you always have the palette for different colours.”  A moving story of love and politics, this new production from Teatro alla Scala in co-production with Staatsoper unter Linden, Berlin, is conducted by Daniel Barenboim and also stars Ferruccio Furlanetto as Fiesco.

Sung in Italian with English subtitles.
