Verdi's 'I masnadieri': Volksoper Wien
About the Event
Discover a Verdian rarity in this setting of Schiller's family tragedy Die Räuber. Brother set against brother by a powerful father's bias, no‐one will emerge unscathed.
Starring Volksoper favorites Kurt Rydl and Vincent Schirrmacher, soprano Sofia Soloviy sings the role of Amalia, written for the 'Swedish Nightingale', Jenny Lind, and a prototype of many of the great heroines Verdi would come to write.
