Azucena’s voice rises once again—this time from the heart of Cluj-Napoca.
With deep gratitude for the honour of receiving the Cluj Romanian National Opera Prize at last year’s VERUM SOLITUS Vocal Competition, mezzosoprano Alina Dragnea now returns to the stage of Opera Națională Română Cluj-Napoca to embody Azucena's fire and sorrow in Verdi's Il Trovatore.




































Aunt Zita warmly invites you to Puccini’s comic masterpiece, Gianni Schicchi, presented in a unique co-production between the Bucharest National Opera, Teatrul Muzical Ambasadorii, and the “Ludovic Spiess” Experimental Studio.
🗓 The premiere will take place on November 16th, 2024, followed by four additional performances on November 23rd and 24th.
🎬 Performed in Romanian and designed for the whole family, under the artistic direction of Alexandru Nagy, this staging reimagines Puccini’s timeless tale of deceit and greed in 1980s Romania, against the backdrop of a nation on the verge of revolution. While paying tribute to the 35th anniversary of the Romanian Revolution, the production blends historical reflection with Puccini’s darkly comic masterpiece, creating a moving homage to both opera and Romania’s recent history.
