Last month, The Abbey Hotel was delighted to welcome The Russian State Opera of Siberia featuring some of Russia’s finest singers and world-class orchestra to perform two great masterpieces at Malvern Theatres, La Boheme and Madame Butterfly.
The Russian State Opera of Siberia was formed in 1977 and flourished against the backdrop of a thriving cultural environment, attracting brilliant new talent and quickly establishing itself as a leading opera company, both at home and abroad. Its soloists are renowned for their vocal prowess and dramatic abilities, and are supported by a powerful chorus.No opera can equal the enchanting romance and heartfelt emotion of La Boheme. From the celebrations in the Cafe Momus to the intimacy of the artisans’ garret and final tragic moments of Mimi’s death, Puccinis emotionally charged score never fails to captivate audiences whenever it is performed.
Madame Butterly is Puccinis tragic tale of the doomed love of an American naval lieutenant and his young Japanese bride. Set to a ravishing score, it features some of the most famous arias in all Italian opera as the story moves from tender moments of unbridled love to its ultimate powerful and tragic conclusion.
