Norma Bellini

Vincenzo Bellini´s Norma Opera is a leading example of the bel canto genre. Last fall, it premiered as International Opera Company Finland´s production in Espoo´s Sellosali to sold-out audiences. The Opera gained praises, and it is now possible to see it at Narva Opera Days.

In 2018, International Opera Company Finland was launched. The project aims at exporting Finnish Opera knowledge and producing international operas. As part of the project, operas are also imported to Finland. The first international opera is RING for children, a production of Bayreuth’s Opera Festival. The Finnish interpretation of RING can be seen at Helsinki Music Center during the Helsinki festival in August.

Vincenzo Bellini´s masterpiece Norma is performed at Narva Opera Days on 31 August 2019 under the direction of Ville Saukkonen, one of Finland´s most successful opera directors. Among the international performers are top soloists Guiseppe Varano and Katrin Targo.
The story takes place in a 21st century Middle Asian country and culture where the post-war insurgency is rising, and love between two people from different cultures is the worst of all crimes. It is the story of a love affair between the Roman officer, Pollione, and Norma, and the young Adalgisa, Pollione´s secret lover.
“Norma is a classic and at the same time extremely topical,” says Kaisa Näreranta, a co-founder of International Opera Company Finland.
“Multiculturalism and cultural tolerance are themes of our time and strongly reflected in Norma. The opera includes heartbreakingly beautiful melodies and emotional drama.”
