Overview

"Francesca da Rimini" is a tragic opera in four acts by Riccardo Zandonai, based on the play by Gabriele D'Annunzio. This live performance from the Sferisterio Opera Festival features the Orchestra Filarmonica Marchigiana, conducted by Maurizio Barbacini, with stage direction, set design, costumes, and lighting design by Massimo Gasparon. The talented cast includes Daniela Dessi as Francesca, Fabio Armiliato as Paolo "il bello," and Giacinta Nicotra as Samaritana.

The opera tells the story of Francesca da Rimini, a noblewoman who falls in love with her husband's younger brother, Paolo. Their illicit passion leads to tragic consequences, as they are discovered and ultimately killed by Francesca's husband. Zandonai's lush and expressive score beautifully captures the depth of emotion and drama in this timeless tale of love and betrayal.
