La traviata
Giuseppe Verdi
The deck is stacked against Violetta, the ill-fated heroine of this well-loved tragedy—a courtesan trying to turn her life around, she falls for the romantic Alfredo, but illness and family meddling thwart her one chance at happiness. The buoyant music dances through party scenes and tenderly carries the heartbroken lovers through longing and despair. This stylish new production is designed by Tony Award–winner Christopher Oram and directed by Louisa Muller in her Dallas Opera debut.
Last year's winner of the Emerging Stars Competition at San Francisco Opera, Chilean soprano Yaritza Véliz brings passion and power to the role of Violetta, and acclaimed Mexican tenor Javier Camarena sings the lovesick Alfredo. Featuring The Dallas Opera Orchestra and Chorus.
Sung in Italian with projected English titles.
PG-13. This opera includes mature themes, including violence, prostitution, and sexuality.
Pelleas and Melisande
Claude Debussy
Lost, confused, and frightened, Melisande is coerced into marrying the overbearing prince Golaud, and in her marital melancholy, the young bride grows close to her handsome brother-in-law, Pelleas. Golaud's rage sets the stage for this timeless tale of forbidden love, family jealousy, and regret. Debussy's luminous orchestrations propel the drama to ecstatic heights, the music a striking contrast to this new Ibsen-esque production by Dutch director Jetske Mijnssen.
Ludovic Morlot conducts a stunning cast including baritone Benjamin Appl as Pelleas, soprano Lauren Snouffer as Melisande, and baritone Nicolas Courjal as Golaud. Sir Willard White makes his Dallas Opera debut as the grandfather Arkel, and mezzo-soprano Katharine Goeldner is the matriarch Genevieve.
Sung in French with projected English titles.
PG-13. This opera includes mature themes, including violence and fratricide.
