    Musica a Palazzo

    Hang onto your wineglass and brace for impact: in these intimate palace drawing rooms, the soprano’s high notes might make you fear for your glassware, and the thundering baritone is felt in the base of the spine. The drama unfolds over 1½ hours of selected arias from Verdi to Rossini, with 70 guests and their drinks trailing singers in modern dress as they pour their hearts out in song, progressing from receiving-room overtures to heartbreaking finales in the bedroom.
