| Synopsis : | 2008 marks the 150th birth anniversary of renowned Italian opera composer Giacomo Puccini, whose operas have long been regarded as the most popular in the repertoire, and are frequently performed in opera houses around the world. To commemorate, Artists Platform is presenting a concert dedicated to the heroines of Puccini, in all their heart-rending vulnerability. In all of Puccini’s operas, these frail creatures live with all their hearts for love and die tragically through sickness (Mimi, Manon), betrayal (Anna) or suicide (Butterfly, Tosca, Liu and Sister Angelica). The concert programme comprises arias and scenes from Puccini's operas such as Le Villi, Manon Lescaut , La Boheme, Madama Butterfly, Tosca, Gianni Schicchi, Suor Angelica, La Rondine and Turandot. The roles of the heroines will be performed by sopranos Li Hong, Vivian Li, Tan Khar Gee, Ang Mei Foong and an ensemble of female voices, all accompanied on the piano by Kok-Ting Chong. Presented by The Kuala Lumpur & Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall Choir and Artists Platform, sponsored by The MUI Group and supported by The Embassy of Italy. |
