Book your tickets for Puccini's Turandot at the Opera Bastille in Paris. Under the baton of Gustavo Dudamel, the Paris Opera's new musical director, Elena Pankratova performs the title role in Robert Wilson's hypnotically beautiful new production.
Giacomo Puccini's lyrical testament, Turandot brings together all the elements of a multi-faceted genius, as much in terms of melodic inspiration as in the subtle blend of comic and dramatic genres, pervasive lyricism and supreme mastery of an orchestration evocative of Oriental charms, or again the moving portrayal of a fragile woman, Liu, a marvellous counterpoint to the proud and haughty Turandot. Under the baton of Gustavo Dudamel, the Paris Opera's new musical director, Elena Pankratova performs the title role in Robert Wilson's hypnotically beautiful new production.
