Simon Boccanegra – Giuseppe Verdi – Programme – Season 2018/19
€8.00
Simon Boccanegra was produced in association with the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, London. This production was first seen at the Royal Opera House, London on 12 November 1991.
Giuseppe Verdi created one of the most impressive baritone roles for Simon Boccanegra. Through the lips of the historical figure of the first Doge of Genoa, Verdi was able to express his own political thinking and ideals for a united Italy, far from fratricidal wars.
In the magnificent impressive production of the Royal Opera House, Moshinsky attempts an historical direction inspired by the art and architecture of Renaissance. The leitmotifs in his direction are constantly recurring images of the sea, encapsulating a reference to mortality.
