ROSSINI
Il Viaggio A Reims
Alain Maratrat's highly original and clever production of Il Viaggio a Reims, developed over several seasons by the Théâtre du Châtelet and the Mariinsky Theatre, took both theatres by storm. A radiant Valery Gergiev whips up a cast of brilliant young singers from the Academy of the Mariinsky Theatre to unbelievable heights in a colourful, witty rendering that reinvigorates Rossini's last Italian opera. Captured in High Definition video and true surround sound, the detail of this vigorous celebration of music and singing almost bursts from
the screen, as fresh as it was when premiered in Paris in 1825.

‘A bubbly, spiritual spectacle…’ Le Figaro
‘The depth of talent that the Mariinsky Academy and Gergiev have formed is impressive. Many major opera houses would hesitate before programming a Rossini opera that demands so many expert Rossinians. The academy miraculously managed to double cast the work.’ Opera News
