Il Turco in Italia: Bayerische Staatsoper

Over het evenement

Enjoy Rossini's turbulent comedy, as timely as tomorrow.

A Turkish prince wants to familiarize himself with European customs. For example, in Naples – unlike back home – he cannot simply buy another man’s wife. But the confusion on a camping ground finally becomes just the right subject matter for writer Prosdocimo. He has been looking for material for his new book and then gets totally mixed up in the interpersonal entanglements…

Staged with enchanting wit beyond all folklore by Christof Loy: a romp set against a serious background.
