The company will then present a production of Verdi’s early masterpiece “Nabucco” from the Arena di Verona. The work is presented in a production by Arnaud Bernard which transposes the action of the biblical opera to 1848 and the times of Risorgimento.

The opera is conducted by Daniel Oren and stars Susanna Branchini as Abigaile.
