Gianandrea Noseda conducts Cilea’s tragedy, directed by Sir David McVicar, with the action partially set in a working replica of a Baroque theater. The cast also features Anita Rachvelishvili as the Princess of Bouillon, Adriana’s rival for Maurizio’s affections, and Ambrogio Maestri as Michonnet.

FROM THE PRESS

Anna Netrebko was magnificent … Plush, intensely beautiful singing. New York Times
Netrebko is a jewel ... I cannot imagine anyone else, past or present, who could so abundantly fulfill (and sometimes even excel) the possibilities of this role. Observer
The finest cast the production has yet seen. Financial Times
