Francesca Da Rimini: Deutsche Oper Berlin (Rizzi)

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Riccardo Zandonai’s Francesca da Rimini is a four-act opera set during the Renaissance period. The plot concerns an arranged marriage between Francesca and Giovanni, also known as Gianciotto, who is impersonated by his handsome brother Paolo, and with whom Francesca falls passionately in love. Sometimes referred to as the ‘Italian Tristan’, the opera ends in betrayal and a double murder. The production of this rarely performed opera from the Deutsche Oper Berlin proved to be a huge critical success.

“this is undeniably a work well worth encountering and it could hardly be delivered more convincingly than it is here.” PERFORMANCE 5* RECORDING 5* - BBC Music Magazine: April 2022

“Musically, it’s tremendous. Singin with blazing conviction and remarkable tonal lustre, Jakubiak has all the vocal glamour and staying power that the exacting title-role needs… The whole thing is, I think a great achievement. Do watch it.” RECOMMENDED - Gramophone Magazine: May 2022
