Palace Opera & Ballet presents Il Trittico from the Royal Opera.
This is The Royal Opera’s first complete presentation of Puccini’s Il trittico since 1965. Leading director Richard Jones staged his witty, darkly comic realization of Gianni Schicchi for The Royal Opera in 2007, and here he completes the trio. Royal Opera Music Director Antonio Pappano will conduct. Il Trittico (‘the triptych’), unveiled at the Metropolitan Opera, New York, in 1918, represented an operatic departure. Instead of a single evening-length narrative, Puccini offered three contrasting one-act works. Il trittico reached Covent Garden in 1920, but has rarely been performed there complete. Sung in Italian with English subtitles.

“The première of Puccini's three one-act operas, collectively called "Il Trittico," was in 1918 at the New York Met. Although the trilogy are rarely performed together now, I doubt they've ever been better staged than in the current Richard Jones production at the Royal Opera House.” – Paul Levy, The Wall Street Journal.
“**** Bodice-ripping melodrama, cloistered nuns, brilliant farce, and three hours of gorgeous music that allows big voices to let emotion rip: I can think of few operatic treats greater than a good performance of Puccini’s unique trilogy of one-acters, Il Trittico.” - Rupert Christiansen, The Telegraph
