Viva Verdi!

A 200th Anniversary Opera Recital –

About Verdi
Born in a small village in the Parma region of Northern Italy, Giuseppe grew to become the leading composer of Italian opera of the 19th century. Two hundred years have passed since Verdi’s birth in 1813, yet his thirty operas are still relevant to the current world: ideals conflict with power, choices between love and duty. During the recital, a selection of Verdi’s most powerful songs from La Traviata, Un Ballo in Maschera, Aida and Falstaff will be presented. Join us for an unforgettable evening.

Music Director: Dr Robert Casteels (Belgium/Singapore); Stage Director: Alessandra Fel (Italy); Cast: Brendan Keefe Au (Tenor, Singapore), Angela Cortez (Soprano, Philippines), Edwin Orlando Cruz (Tenor, Philippines), Shaun Lee (Tenor, Singapore), William Lim (Baritone, Singapore), Satsuki Nagatome (Soprano, Japan), Sabrina Zuber (Soprano, Italy)
