La Cenerentola: Teatro dell'Opera di Roma (Alejo Pérez) (2016)

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”.
