Verdi: Don Carlo

Verdi: Don Carlo

# Impressive effort but not quite total opera
Music   Drama   History
šŸ“œ Overview: Teatro Regioā€™s 2013 revival of their highly successful 2006 production of Verdiā€™s Don Carlo celebrates the 40th anniversary of the theatreā€™s reopening in 1973. With traditional staging and lavish costume design, the production garnered high acclaim in the national and international press, with GB Opera commending the ā€˜sumptuousā€™ setting and French online music magazine ResMusica praising director Hugo de Anaā€™s decision to revive the show ā€˜in all its splendourā€™. Shown here in the four-act version, Don Carlo is the fascinating tale of father-son power struggles, adultery and love that borders on incest. The cast ā€“ under the powerful baton of Gianandrea Noseda ā€“ is headed by renowned Mexican tenor RamĆ³n Vargas, and also features Ludovic TĆ©zier, who has been hailed as ā€˜one of the best Verdian singers of our timeā€™
