Aida - Rouen Opera house (2024) - Aida - Opéra de Rouen Normandie (2024)

Description

Co-production Savonlinna Opera Festival.

"The "Triumphal March", the unforgettable hits and this unique feeling of diving together into the heart of a masterpiece! Since its creation in 1871, Aïda has carried away the audience who will recall Verdi thirty-two times on stage. The soprano Joyce El-Khoury embodies this timeless heroine in a staging as spectacular as it is intimate by Philipp Himmelmann. She advances into the brilliance of a solar Orient and delivers to us the destiny of a woman in movement. That of a refugee in time of war who decides to live an impossible love in the tumult of History. Carried by sublime arias and by the energy of the choirs, this collective exaltation carries us away."
