Tancredi - Opera

Polish contralto Ewa Podles makes her Boston stage debut as the disinherited and exiled Syracusan knight Tancredi. Ms. Podles is widely regarded as the world’s foremost contralto, and is one of the few singers capable of the challenging title role of Tancredi. Soprano Amanda Forsythe returns to Opera Boston to sing the role of Amenaide, Tancredi’s secret lover who is falsely accused of treason against her family when her unaddressed letter to Tancredi is intercepted and believed to be intended for the leader of the enemy Saracens. Tenor Yeghishe Manucharyan appears as Argirio, the leader of a warring family who disowns his daughter Amenaide when she is suspected of betraying him. Stage Director Kristine McIntyre makes her Boston debut with this production. Since making her directorial debut in 1994, Ms. McIntyre has staged revivals of La Traviata, Luisa Miller, and Il barbiere di Siviglia for the Metropolitan Opera, and has directed new productions of diverse repertoire for companies such as Portland Opera, Dallas Opera, Lyric Opera of Kansas City, and Pittsburgh Opera Center.

Sung in Italian with projected English titles.
