“Verdi – Gala 2004”

Until 2008, on each 10th of October (birthdate of Verdi), the Teatro Regio will hold a concert featuring some of the most important artists, singers, conductors and orchestras of the international music scene. Extracts from all of Verdi’s operas are to be performed in chronological order, to offer an analytic and comprehensive panorama of his output, bringing onto the stage of the Teatro Regio, in the course of a few years, the most acclaimed stars of the operatic world. The great baritone Leo Nucci and the famous tenor Jos Cura are featured in this 2004 recital. Renato Palumbo, who was recently appointed musical director of the Deutsche Oper Berlin, conducts.
