Marco di Felice

Live performance from the Teatro Comunale di Modena

Giancarlo del Monaco's acclaimed new production elegantly intertwines Mascagni's and Leoncavallo's well-loved operas, masterpieces which brought new levels of realism into opera through their so-called verismo style.

The remains of the Roman baths at Baia form the unique backdrop to this performance of Mascagni's opera, recorded live in 2007. Zhang Jiemin conducts the Orchestra and Chorus of the Teatro di San Carlo, Naples, with performances from Ildikó Komlósi, Sung Kyu Park, Cinzia De Mola and Marco di Felice.
