Verdi: Simon Boccanegra

This 2002 production from the Vienna State Opera of Giuseppe Verdi’s “Simon Boccanegra” is “visually alert, musically sensitive and disturbingly coherent” (The Standard). The staging is directed by one of the giants of the European theatre, Peter Stein. His fondness for atmospherically dense spaces in which the characters can fully develop is particularly well brought out in his Vienna production, not least because he had at his disposal two remarkable singing actors for the principal male roles, Thomas Hampson and Ferruccio Furlanetto. Daniele Gatti conducts the Weiner Staatsoper.
