Rossini: La Cenerentola from Teatro di Roma

Emma Dante's rousing Cinderella succeeds in impressing her own contemporary vision on a classic masterpiece, in perfect symbiosis with the spirit of Rossini.

Rossini's second masterpiece La Cenerentola premiered at the Teatro Valle in Rome on the 25 January 1817, less than a year after the first performance of his The Barber of Seville and it's pure, perfect Rossini.
In this production, a set-up made to celebrate 200 years Rossini in Rome, Emma Dante's “rousing Cinderella” (Corriere della Sera) “succeeds in impressing her own contemporary vision on a classic masterpiece, in perfect symbiosis with the spirit of Rossini.” (Opera Now)
“Alejo Pérez deserves the credit for an excellent ensemble and a dazzling rhythmic rendering of the Rossinian score.” (La Nazione – Il Resto del Carlino – Il Giorno)
