Teatro Regio di Parma Announces Cast Change for Opening of ‘Il Trovatore’

By Francisco Salazar

The Teatro Regio di Parma has announced a cast change for its opening night performance of “Il Trovatore.”

The company said that due to indisposition Silvia Dalla Benetta will not be able to sing the role of Leonora on Sept. 24, 2022. As a result, Anna Pirozzi will perform in her stead.

Pirozzi was originally set to perform “La Forza del Destino” during the Verdi Festival but was forced to cancel due to prior commitments. Pirozzi is set to make her debut at the Zurich Opera this season in a production of “Nabucco.”

She joins a cast that includes Angelo Villari (Manrico), Simon Mechlinski (Conte di Luna), Rossana Rinaldi (Azucena), and Alessandro Della Morte (Ferrando).

“Il Trovatore” is set to be performed from Sept. 24 to Oct. 13 with Dalla Benetta performing the last three performances.
