DONIZETTI Le Nozze in Villa - Trailer [2020 Donizetti Opera] @Festival Donizetti Opera

Le nozze in villa (‘The Wedding in the Villa’) tells the story of Sabina and the young Claudio. They are in love, but this match goes against the will of her father, who wants her to marry the Schoolmaster Trifoglio. Misunderstandings and tensions between city emancipation and provincial narrow-mindedness are resolved, and romance ultimately triumphs thanks to the alliance of ‘gracefulness, faith and youth’. This early and virtually unknown opera buffa by Donizetti is full of Rossini-influenced lyrical
inventiveness and beautiful arias. Specially restored for the 2020
Bergamo Festival, this revival brings out all of the opera’s ‘sparkling spirit and melodiousness’ (bachtrack.com). This early, long-forgotten opera by Donizetti was staged during the 2020 edition of the Festival dedicated to the composer, with full- Covid 19 safety measures on. Fondazione Donizetti and its scholars took on the challenge to stage a work which had no original printed copy of the libretto, no autograph score and a second act quintet

– “Aura gentil, che mormori” – which was completely missing. This latter was commissioned to Elio and Rocco Tanica with the collaboration of Enrico Melozzi, who created a new version which “seamlessly blended with the rest of the score.” (Bachtrack). The mise-en-scène is contemporary, imaginative and playful.
