In a 19th century final concert, opera rubs shoulders with tone poems from Bavaria. Verdi’s heroine in La Forze del Destino, forced to choose between her father and lover, suffers a tragic fate, foreshadowed in the dramatic overture by the use of the destiny theme. Richard Strauss’ Don Juan and Till Eulenspiegel in turn graphically portray well known rakishness and a prankster’s merry exploits. To complement the Verdi, the bass-baritone arias are in keeping with the drama of this programme.

Verdi La Forza del Destino Overture
Rossini Il Barbiere di Siviglia - Largo al factotum
Bellini I Puritani "Ah! per sempre io ti perdei"
Mozart Le Nozze di Figaro Overture K 492
Mozart Don Giovanni - Madamina, il catalogo è questo
Puccini Edgar "Questo amor, vergogna mia"
Bizet Carmen - #14 Toreador Song
Richard Strauss Don Juan Op 20
Richard Strauss Till Eulenspiegels Lustige Streiche Op 28

    You can be very very very talented but never a star, you can be a bit talented and beautiful and then you can be a star , so beauty is the vital ingredient. I know thats not fair but thats the way of the world.

    I have been to concerts where the "star" is not really that beautiful and it did detract from their performance.A rather sad thing to say but true for me at least.
