Live opera returns at the CCP Main Theater with Puccini’s monumental opera, Turandot. This production is part of the celebration of the 60th year of the Philippine-Italian Association (PIA) and the commemoration of 75 years of diplomatic relations between Italy and the Philippines.
Turandot will see Manila audiences watching the pomp and pageantry in ancient China as imagined by Italian composer Giacomo Puccini. Filipino opera fans will once more hear the world’s most famous tenor aria – “Nessun dorma” – complete with amazing stage sets and local choirs.
This staging features soprano Lilla Lee as Princess Turandot; bass Jinsu Lee as Timur, the exiled Tartar King; our very own soprano Rachelle Gerodias as Liu, a young slave; baritone Byeong In Park as Ping, Grand Chancellor; tenor Ivan Nery as Pong, Grand Intendant; tenor Nomher Nival as Emperor Altoum; and baritone Greg De Leon as Mandarino. It will be directed by Italian director Maestro Vincenzo Grisostomi Travaglini.
