Andrea Chénier by Umberto GIORDANO is a well-known work of verismo opera. It portrays a tragic love affair against the turbulent backdrop of the French Revolution between the actual, historical poet, Andrea Chénier, and the daughter of a count, Maddalena. The production by Philippe ARLAUD makes skillful use of devices such as a prop that serves as a metaphor for the guillotine, a revolving stage, light and shadow, and colour.
The young, Italian conductor, Jader BIGNAMINI, makes his first appearance at the NNTT. The title role is played by Carlo VENTRE, Maddalena by Maria José SIRI, a soprano from Uruguay, and Gérard by Vittorio VITELLI.
