Donizetti’s “Caterina Cornaro” at the Klangvokal Musikfestival Dortmund

It is hard to believe, but Gaetano Donizetti’s lyrical tragedy, premiered in 1844 in Naples, has never before been performed in a German opera house. The story deals with the Queen of Cyprus, who came from a noble Venetian family, and the work is full of entrancingly beautiful, almost soulful music. The Klangvokal Musikfestival, always ready to push the boundaries, is now including this operatic rarity in its programme. It will be performed on 11 June 2022 in the Konzerthaus Dortmund with hand-picked vocal soloists and the Rundfunkchor and Funkhausorchester conducted by Giacomo Sagripanti. The Stadttheater Gießen is going a step further and presents “Caterina Cornaro” on 27 November 2022 as the first staged performance in German-speaking countries, directed by Anna Drescher and conducted by Vladimir Yaskorski.
