Michele Mariotti conducts a new production of the powerful part of Opera di Roma "Trittico ricomposto" project
«Michele Mariotti conducted both works equally well, from the sweet sounds of Puccini to the apparent harshness of Dallapiccola’s brilliant and complex score.»

«In the Rome Opera's production of "Suor Angelica" and "Il Prigioniero," Michele Mariotti's musical vision is the guiding force. As musical director, he has successfully "recomposed" Puccini's "Triptych," revealing unexpected connections and enriching the interpretation.
Previously, Mariotti highlighted the "expressionist" side of "Tabarro" and softened the sounds of "Gianni Schicchi." On this occasion, he pushed for a musical encounter between "Suor Angelica" and "Il Prigioniero," finding greater singability in Dallapiccola and revealing new orchestral dimensions in Puccini.
Even in Dallapiccola's prologue, Mariotti managed to "mend the musical tears," making the experience more fluid and the message deeper. Ultimately, Michele Mariotti's musical thought is the main driver of this production, offering an interpretation worthy of consideration.»
