Rigoletto
My third opera in as many weeks on my travels was Rigoletto performed in Nice.
Nice
After Milan I took the train to Nice where I enjoyed the sea, fine art, and more opera. A local carousel and a sweet young boy and his best friend.
Teatro alla Scala – Milan Opening Night May 6th
Don Giovanni – Music By: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Libretto – Teatro alla Scala Chorus and Orchestra
My first visit to La Scala and I was fortunate enough to be there for opening night of Don Giovanni.
Teatro Massimo – Palermo, Sicily
Passione secondo Giovanni
Music by Johann Sebastian Bach
The first of three operas I was fortunate enough to attend on my current travels abroad. Teatro Massimo is the largest theatre in Italy and the third largest opera house in Europe although it may be best known because the final scenes of the Godfather III were filmed here.
