Jan Willem de Vriend with Rossini

Performance in the Concert Hall? Indeed, it goes well, even without a stage and backstage. Eva Buchmann has already demonstrated this in Tonhalle Maag, where she conjured up everything needed for Haydn's Opera «Lo speziale» from a Fiat 500. Now she presents again Rossini's «La scala di seta», a tempo- and intrigue-rich love comedy in half-staged version. Already in the famous overture, this opera first performed in Venice in 1812 sets its musical machinery in motion, to which Rossini's characters are subsequently doomed. The amorous relationships are complicated, the orchestra under the direction of Jan Willem de Vriend will help the secret love pair overcome many obstacles – but in the end everything turns out well.
