We love Opera ! ( June 20 Th, 5 pm)
Norma, by Vicenzo Bellini
Once again we are to meet Sergio Ionescu for a new and enchanting Talk about opera Norma, one of the Bel Canto master pieces.
We will enjoy a magnifique ( DVD) performance from Bavarian Opera conducted by Friedrich Haider ( May 2007).
“In Roman-occupied Gaul, around 50 B.C., the Druid priestess Norma must call her people to war against Rome. Secretly Norma has born two children by the Roman proconsul Pollione—an enemy of her people. Pollione, however, has fallen for the young priestess Adalgisa. The diva is more desperate for love than life and makes the ultimate sacrifice to attain it. This lyric tragedy is widely regarded as one of Bellini’s greatest operatic works.” Source: www.operamoto.org
