What it’s about. Early Rossini has a youthful, buoyant vibrancy about it, even in the dark swirls of drammi per musica like Sigismondo. The work, centered on a mad king and his delusions, was rarely played after its premiere in 1814. This performance marked the first from the critical new edition at the 2010 Rossini Opera Festival in Pesaro and was hailed as a "perfect symbiosis of music and stage work" resulting in "truly brilliant theatre." Complete with a cast of sought-after Rossini singers, this is not to be missed.
Who’s in it. Rossini Sigismondo stars Daniela Barcellona as Sigismondo, Andrea Concetti as Ulderico, Olga Peretyatko as Aldimira and Antonino Siragusa as Ladislao, among others.
