Opera Zuid: Le Villi & Silenzio

Lees in het Nederlands

Opera Zuid takes you in Le Villi & Silenzio  with an enchanting interplay of music, drama and dance to a world where broken hearts are avenged. ‘Le Villi’ is a dance opera full of passion, love and mysticism. In his first opera, Giacomo Puccini based himself on the age-old Central European myth of the ‘Vilja’: young women who died of a broken heart. Especially for Opera Zuid, the Dutch composer Karmit Fadael composes a prelude: ”Silenzio’. The leading actress Sílvia Sequeira (Anna) won the MAX opera talent show ARIA in 2022.

Sung in Italian, with Dutch and English surtitles.
