Programme
Verdi Un giorno di regno
Chris Hopkins conducts the Philharmonia and Garsington Opera Chorus in Verdi’s comedic Un giorno di regno.
A tale of thwarted love and mistaken and assumed identities, Verdi’s comedy revolves around an ordinary man becoming “King for a Day”. The use of this new power to disentangle some unhappy betrothals results in a maelstrom of madness and delusional behaviour filling the story with twists and turns.
Regrettably, due to injury, Tobias Ringborg will no longer conduct our production of Verdi’s Un regno di giorno which opens at the end of June. Chris Hopkins will now conduct this production. We thank Tobias for his work on this opera and we wish him a speedy recovery.
