| Comic OR Tragic Opera in Princeton this Summer |
Choose from Opera New Jersey’s summer season offerings by Gilbert & Sullivan or Giuseppe Verdi. Do you prefer the light-hearted exuberance of HMS Pinafore OR the very eloquent and plot-rich Il Trovatore? It’s your choice! Joe & Margaret Jiuliano offer two tickets seated beside them donated by Opera New Jersey. They will pick you up, chauffeur you to Princeton’s McCarter Theatre, and escort you to the performance of your choice (July dates TBA). Dinner will also be provided at a nearby restaurant. Comic opera HMS Pinafore; or, The Lass That Loved a Sailor was Gilbert & Sullivan’s 4th operatic collaboration and their first international sensation. The opera humor focuses on love between members of different social classes and lampoons the British class system in general. There’s plenty of mirth and silliness in this celebrated comic opera. Il Trovatore premiered at Rome’s Teatro Apollo in 1853 and in the U.S. in 1855. The reason for its long-standing popularity is the music. Trovatore features one of the most spectacular tenor arias in any opera, a series of memorable soprano arias, some truly searing music for the mezzo-soprano and a couple of Verdi's signature, achingly beautiful baritone arias. And that's not to mention the famous "Anvil Chorus." You can be assured that Opera New Jersey will stage it with their best vocal talent this summer!
