ORCHESTRA E CORO DEL TEATRO LA FENICE
MYUNG-WHUN CHUNG
CLAUDIO MARINO MORETTI
STAGED BY FRANCESCO MICHELI
Rarely has a production of Verdi's Otello been staged in such a prestigious location: the courtyard of the Palazzo Ducale Venice! This special outdoor "event production" of the Teatro La Fenice takes place amidst genuine late-Gothic and Renaissance architecture highlighted by spectacular projections: "A set of singular fascination" (Il Corriere Musicale). Critics were full of praise for the musical performance, designating conductor Myung-When Chung as the "absolutely dominating force of the performance (GB Opera). The lead role is sung by Gregory Kunde, who successfully interpreted both Verdi's and Rossini's Otello in one year, perhaps the first tenor ever to do so. He "reproduces every accent, every colour demanded by Verdi with sensibility and intelligence" (OperaClick)
