Rossini, Bellini, and Britten
Monte Carlo Opera raises the curtain on its 2017-2018 season with a gala evening on 21 September.
Rossini's La Cenerentola, based on Charles Perrault's version of the Cinderella story, has been chosen for the 19th November Monegasque National Day gala performance, with Cecilia Bartoli in the lead role. The Italian mezzo-soprano is artistic director of the baroque music ensemble Les Musiciens du Prince, founded in Monaco in 2016.
The Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra is visiting in January, Italian baritone Leo Nucci is performing in March, and this season's opera for a young audience is Faust.
