The Verdi theater is finishing 2022 on a high note (pun intended) with the staging of Puccini’s ‘La Boheme’ this Friday, 9 December at 8.30 pm.
La Bohème tells the story of Rodolfo and his love for Mimi, a young seamstress whom he meets on the Christmas Eve. Over the course of a couple of hours, Puccini treats us to some of the most ravishing and famous opera arias in the world: among them, the tenor solo ‘Che gelida manina’ (‘Your tiny hand is frozen’) and ‘Sì, mi chiamano Mimì’ (‘Yes, they call me Mimi’). The highlight for many, though, is the sumptuous Act I duet ‘O soave fanciulla’ (‘O lovely maid in the moonlight’) – a shimmering concoction of lush orchestration and enrapturing vocal melodies.
The opening night of La Boheme is this Friday, 9 December at 8.30 pm with tickets from 35 Euros (for under 35 years old) and up. For more info, please visit www.teatroverdi-trieste.com
