The show, recorded behind closed doors these days at the Municipal Theater with the utmost attention to health safety regulations for artists and staff, will be broadcast in streaming premiere on Sunday, December 20 at 3:30 PM<\/strong>, free of charge and worldwide on YouTube, thanks to the support of Opera Streaming, the first regional portal dedicated to the transmission of opera, <\/strong>where it will remain available afterwards.<\/p>\n

In the period traditionally dedicated to the inauguration of the Piacenza Opera Season, the famous Rossini title, a co-production of the Fondazione Teatro Regio di Parma and the Fondazione Teatri di Piacenza, will be staged in the classic and elegant production signed in 2005 for the Regio di Parma by the Master of direction Beppe De Tomasi<\/strong>, revived by Renato Bonajuto, <\/strong>who describes his work revised in light of the anti-Covid rules as follows: \u201cA new way to which the performers of this dynamic company have lent themselves with professionalism and enthusiasm \u2013 explains Bonajuto in the director’s notes \u2013 putting themselves to the test, experimenting with new solutions, new languages that reached the audience even through the new technological tool of streaming, respecting the comic character desired by the composer.\u201d<\/p>\n

The conductor and director will be Nikolas N\u00e4gele<\/strong>, Kapellmeister at the Deutsche Oper Berlin, leading the Orchestra dell\u2019Emilia-Romagna Arturo Toscanini<\/strong> and the Chorus of the Municipal Theater of Piacenza <\/strong>prepared by Corrado Casati<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A new cast featuring young singers and specialists in the Rossini repertoire: the twenty-three-year-old tenor Manuel Amati (Count Almaviva), <\/strong>the mezzo-soprano Giuseppina Bridelli<\/strong> making her debut in the role of Rosina, returning to the Municipal Theater after Aci, Galatea e Polifemo<\/em> by H\u00e4ndel, the internationally renowned baritone Roberto de Candia<\/strong> (Figaro), the baritone Marco Filippo Romano<\/strong> (Don Bartolo), another welcome return to the Municipal Theater after La Cenerentola<\/em> and La forza del destino<\/em>, as well as the bass Mattia Denti<\/strong> (Don Basilio), a native of Piacenza like Stefania Ferrari<\/strong> (Berta), Simone Tansini<\/strong> (Officer) and Bridelli herself, in the spirit of continuous attention to local artists, and the baritone Francesco Cascione<\/strong> (Fiorello). The sets are by Poppi Ranchetti<\/strong>, the costumes by Artemio Cabassi<\/strong>, and the lighting by Michele Cremona<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Composed for the Teatro Argentina in Rome in 1816, the opera is inspired by the comedy Le Barbier de S\u00e9ville ou La pr\u00e9caution inutile<\/em> by Pierre-Augustin Caron de Beaumarchais, already set to music thirty-four years earlier by Giovanni Paisiello. Perhaps it was precisely the prejudices of Paisiello’s supporters that led to the protests that greeted its debut. However, the failure lasted only one day: already after the premiere, the success of the opera grew rapidly and within a few years it was performed throughout Europe. Its fortune has never waned, establishing The Barber of Seville as the most well-known and performed opera of the comic genre.[\/vc_column_text][\/tab][tab icon_family=”none” title=”Program booklet” id=”1768989181005-0″ tab_id=”1768989181005-9″][nectar_btn size=”small” open_new_tab=”true” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Accent-Color” icon_family=”none” text=”Download the program” url=”https:\/\/operastreaming.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/programma-di-sala-Barbiere.pdf”][\/tab][\/tabbed_section][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#DBCECD” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”4%” constrain_group_1=”yes” bottom_padding=”4%” top_padding_phone=”8%” constrain_group_5=”yes” bottom_padding_phone=”8%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all” min_width=”47vh”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”0px” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” enable_animation=”true” animation=”fade-in-from-bottom” animation_easing=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” enable_border_animation=”true” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][divider line_type=”Small Line” line_alignment=”default” line_thickness=”8″ divider_color=”accent-color” custom_line_width=”69″][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n
