On Thursday, 12 December at 7:00 p.m., a nine-member team of artists will perform at the Forum in a musical spectacle prepared on an extraordinary scale.
The bicentenary of Giuseppe Verdi’s birth inspired the creation of the international project Verdi Gala 2013. Roncole Verdi Orchestra, previously performing abroad under the name Opera Polska, was established on the initiative of maestro Marek Tracz and the Italian conductor Silvano Frontalini.
The orchestra’s core consists of outstanding musicians from philharmonic orchestras and opera theatres across Europe. The project brings together artists who feel a particular affinity with Giuseppe Verdi’s work, led by Italian performers: Silvia Rampazzo, Giulio Boschetti and Silvano Frontalini. The soloists, choir and orchestra form a team of nearly 90 people.
“Verdi Gala” is a large-scale musical and stage spectacle combining excerpts from operas known throughout the world, including: La Traviata, Rigoletto, Aida and Nabucco.
Verdi’s music masterfully conveys all human feelings, emotions and passions. On stage, images from different eras pass by like a kaleidoscope—from ancient Egypt (Aida), through the courts of powerful rulers (Rigoletto) and gypsy camps (Il trovatore), to romantic salons (La traviata).
