SCHICCHI 2.0

Giacomo Puccini: SCHICCHI 2.0
Contemporary Opera - Premier
This performance is not recommended for chrildren under the age of 12.

We can safely say that Gianni Schicchi is one of the most entertaining comic works of opera literature, which stands out even in the opera oeuvre of Giacomo Puccini with its wittiness. Ingenious moments chase one another both in the vocal and orchestral parts, and also through the text and the incredibly funny situations. Not many works dare to apply the black, nay morbid humour that allows the comical family intrigues enfold right next to the deathbed of a relative.
