ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE

Marco Tutino new verista opera trying to inject new blood into the Italian Opera repertoire. Libretto based on Luca Rossi and not on the Moravia novel on which De Sica based his movie with the same characters. Excellent Antonacci as the woman suffering from the catastrophe of WW2 that was so cruel to Italy
Not a master piece but a very decent opera. Antonacci superb. Let´s hope for ‘il Risorgimento’ of Italian Opera as it used to be.
After my 3rd. viewing, I consider this opera a great anti-war thesis because, even more than the terrible “marocchinate”, there is no worse violation of the whole human race than war, which Tutino cleverly expresses in various ways.
