NICCOLÒ JOMMELLI
IL VOLOGESO
Berenice, Queen of Armenia
Opera in three acts (1766)
After Apostolo Zeno’s Lucio Vero

Niccolò Jommelli was an innovative superstar among composers in his day, and is now recognised as a precursor of the new Viennese Classical taste in music. With its intense story of love, life and death, Il Vologeso sets one of the most powerful libretti written for the European opera stage. This critically acclaimed production is considered to be its first staged performance for over two centuries, and the highly successful opera directors Jossi Wieler and Sergio Morabito have revived a Baroque gem with their exciting, present-day staging.
