Vincenzo Milletarì conducts Verdi's Falstaff — With Milan Siljanov, Minki Hong, Felicitas Wrede … Verbier Festival 2024

About

Maestro Vincenzo Milletarì leads a concert production of Verdi's final operatic masterpiece, Falstaff, with the Verbier Festival Junior Orchestra and talented young vocalists from the festival's Atelier Lyrique! This opera buffa in three acts, inspired by Shakespeare's The Merry Wives of Windsor and Henry IV, follows the adventures and misadventures of the knight Jon Falstaff (played by bass-baritone Milan Siljanov). To pay off his debts, Falstaff attempts to seduce and swindle two wealthy women in the town of Windsor, Alice Ford and Meg Page — but the ladies, wise to his machinations, decide to set a trap of their own… The master of Italian opera concludes his career on a note of joy and levity in this perennially delightful comedy, in which "all the world's a farce."
