Roberto Devereux Donizetti

Singers and the audience love bel canto! After we are showing Anna Bolena, another opera from Donizetti's trilogy about the Tudor dynasty. The composer cast the unhappy love story between Roberto and Elizabeth I of England, which will ultimately cost Devereux his life, into wonderfully soulful melodies. At the end of the opera, the Queen realizes that she no longer has any hope of a happy future, renounces the throne and ends the reign of the House of Tudor. The love, suffering and longing of the characters reach us directly when we listen. A great homage to the singing skills of the composer of Der Liebestrank (L'elisir d'amore)! For the Karlsruhe ensemble members, Kammersängerin Ina Schlingensiepen as Queen Elisabeth, Eleazar Rodriguez as Roberto Devereux and Armin Kolarczyk in the role of the Duke of Nottingham, Donizetti's melodies are parade roles.
