Puccini Double Bill

To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the death of one of the worlds most celebrated opera composers, Queensland Conservatorium Griffith University presents two of Puccini’s One Act Operas –Suor Angelica, a tragic tale of repentance within an Italian convent, and his only comedy, Gianni Schicchi, where love, lies, and treachery take place around a family funeral.

Conducted by the Conservatorium’s Professor of Opera & Orchestral Studies, Johannes Fritzsch, directed by the acclaimed Lindy Hume AM, and featuring the legendary soprano aria O mio babbino caro, this is one double bill that is not to be missed.
