The opera team in Comediants, directed by Joan Font, brought Master Rossini’s opera, IL BARBIERE DI SEVIGLIA, to the Opéra National Bordeaux, where it premiered on September 28th 2012. It has been a hugely successful project, very well received by the critics.
Likewise, across the Atlantic, at the Houston Opera House, Joan Font from Comediants directed LA ITALIANA IN ALGERI which premiered on October 26th 2012. And thus the so called Rossini Trilogy comes full circle: it started with The Cenerentola, then came Il Barbiere di Seviglia and L’Italiana in Algeri is the final piece that completes the set.
