Giuseppe Verdi: Aida MCPS

Director: Sonja Frisell

Conductor: Fabio Luisi

Cast: RAMFIS – Stefan Kocán, RADAMÈS – Roberto Alagna, AMNERIS – Olga Borodina, AIDA – Liudmyla Monastyrska, THE KING – Miklós Sebestyén, A MESSENGER – Hugo Vera, A PRIESTESS – Jennifer Check, AMONASRO – George Gagnidze

This grandest of grand operas features an epic backdrop for what is in essence an intimate love story. Set in ancient Egypt and packed with magnificent choruses, complex ensembles, and elaborate ballets, Aida never loses sight of its three protagonists: Amneris, the proud daughter of the pharaoh; her slave, Aida, who is the princess of the rival kingdom of Ethiopia; and Radamès, the Egyptian warrior they both love. Few operas have matched Aida in its exploration of the conflict of private emotion and public duty, and perhaps no other has remained to the present day so unanimously appreciated by audiences and critics alike.
