Teatro alla Scala Joan of Arc
NR 2 hr 10 minMusic
Giovanna dArco ossia la pulzella dOrléans is an operatic dramma lirico with a prologue and three acts by Giuseppe Verdi to an Italian libretto by Temistocle Solera The opera partly reflects the story of Joan of Arc and is based on a play by Friedrich von Schiller although claimed by the librettist to be an entirely original Italian drama If the thought of Anna Netrebko strutting her stuff in a suit of armour and tin hat sets your factor tingling then this is a must Its an inconsistent opera but has some quite wonderful music along the way The rest of the cast is good and the production wont offend either Get it for Ms Netrebkos incredible performance alone
