Anna Markarova and Kamen Chanev lead the Opera de Montreal!
Verdi's iconic Ancient Egyptian-set opera Aida remains one of his most popular works, along with La Traviata and Nabucco. Having since been adapted into a rock opera by Tim Rice and Andrew Lloyd-Webber, it is often forgotten that the original Aida preceded the Tony Award-winner by a hundred years, and was first performed in Cairo's Khedivial Opera House in 1871. Opera de Montreal's lustrous production returns for the 2016/17 season.
Set in Pharoah-era Egypt, the story centres around the conflict between forbidden love and hatred for one's enemies. Aida, a seemingly lowly Nubian slave girl is in love with her Egyptian captor Radames, a distinguished warrior on the battlefield. Unbeknownst to everyone however, she is in fact the captured princess from Ethiopia, whose furious father is on his way to rescue, laying waste to Egypt in his path. Adding to the sense of danger is Amneris, the Egyptian princess, whose love for Radames cannot shake the feeling that Aida just may be her rival in love.
