Fifteen Molfetta – La Traviata with the Apulian Philharmonic Orchestra of Molfetta on stage at the Politeama in Naples

MOLFETTA – Sunday 21 April at 6pm, at the Politeama in Naples (Via Monte di Dio 80), new appointment with “La Traviata” of the Sicilia Classica Festival. Verdi’s opera will be staged with the direction of Lorenzo Lenzi and a cast of international caliber such as the soprano Desirée Rancatore in the role of Violetta, the tenor Francesco Castoro in the role of Alfredo Germont, the baritone Giovanni Palminteri in that of Giorgio Germont, all known for strong vocal and stage skills. The other singers on stage were also of the highest level: Gabriella Aleo, Francesco Ciprì, Francesco Cascione, Maria Mellace, Alex Franzò and Luciano Montanaro. Francesco Di Mauro will conduct the brilliant Pugliese Philharmonic Orchestra of Molfetta and the Lyric Choir of Lecce. The scenes are from the Sicilia Classica Festival, the costumes by Fabrizio Buttiglieri, the choreography by Stefania Cotroneo. The show, particular and without filters, has already sold out several times and animated the reflections of critics and audiences. The reference to the nineteenth-century allure, more symbolic than realist, will take place through a series of paintings projected onto the background of the scene. The themes of the first and second act are found in the pictorial categories of living life and artistic nude: an example for all, the neoclassical scene of the countryside, in which Delacroix’s Basket of Flowers joins a trio of living statues that pay homage to the Thanks to Canova, symbolizing a cloyingly perfect everyday life destined to collapse. While the third act highlights, through still lifes, the concept of Vanitas and the transience of life.
