About

In few words:

Divested of its traditional attributes – glass slipper and pumpkin carriage – and dominated by a tyrannical stepfather instead of a cruel stepmother, Rossini’s la Cenerentola plays with these most conventional of fairy‑tale characters. Nonetheless Cinderella lives in a closed world devoid of tenderness and under the yoke of the tormentor whom she protects. Deep beneath her goodness smoulders a fire that her encounter with the prince will set free… Guillaume Gallienne subtly highlights the halftones of this dramma giocoso, somewhere between opera buffa and opera seria, and ranging from sombre melancholy to the burlesque.

Media coverage

  • Sublime d'entrain, de vivacité, d'énergie, deux heures et demie de bonheur où fusent à jet continu les ensembles, duos, trios, quatuors, airs seuls et même quintette, sextuor, septuor, comme un fleuve inlassable […]

    Bertrand Renard, Culturebox, 13 juin 2017

  • Côté musique, les chœurs et l'orchestre sont parfaits

    François Deletraz, LeFigaro.fr, 25 juin 2017

  • Gallienne réussit tout particulièrement les rencontres de Cenerentola et Alidoro au début du 1er acte puis celle du prince Don Ramiro. Deux moments magiques où le temps s'arrête.

    François Deletraz, LeFigaro.fr, 25 juin 2017
