nawyzowkinach.pl – distributor of opera, ballet and theater transmissions and rebroadcasts to cinemas – invites to the Turandot opera show by Giacomo Puccini in the famous staging of Franco Zeffirelli recorded on the stage of The Metropolitan Opera in New York. The monumental performance of Turandot on the grand screen of the Warsaw Cinema Praha can be seen on August 22, 2018 at 6.30 pm.

The Turandot staging prepared for Met by Franco Zeffirelli in 1987 has long been hailed as the showcase of the New York scene. The famous director of this staging also designed a truly fairy-tale set design that continually impresses the audience. The spectacular performance registered in 2016 will be repeated as part of the series "The Met: live in HD".

Puccini's score is full of great hits of opera music; everyone knows the famous Nessun dorma Kalafa's aria. However, the biggest requirements are set by the performer of the title role: Rosa Raisa, who was born as Róża Burchstein in Białystok, after the premiere performance apparently lost her voice. This is not a threat to Nina Stemme, who successfully performs great dramas on the biggest stages of the world. The part of Kalafa will be performed by Marco Berti, Liu will be Anita Hartig, who is in love with her, and Alexander Tsymbalyuk will perform the bass part of Timur. Conducts Paolo Carignani.

Media patronage: Polish Music Information Centre POLMIC.
