Infidelity, treachery and murder are the ingredients of the most famous diptych in Italian opera history: Pagliacci and Cavalleria rusticana.

In these two short operas, directed by celebrated director Robert Carsen, obsessive love and jealousy drive the characters to extremes, with emotions running high.

Pagliacci / Cavelleria rusticana is a stylish opener for the season, with the Chorus of Dutch National Opera in full force. Andrea Battistoni is one of the leading Italian conductors of today. He will take the helm of these two gems of verismo, an opera style in which everyday life and raw emotion are centered.
