Miriam Gauci returns to Gaulitana to perform the title-role in Puccini’s opera after interpreting the “triumphant and touching” Madama Butterfly in 2017. The production, directed by Enrico Castiglione, will present Manon to buffs after an absence of 40 years from the local operatic stage. A stellar cast featuring Enrique Ferrer and Lucio Gallo, the Malta Philharmonic Orchestra and the Gaulitanus Choir will be under the baton of Colin Attard.
Manon Lescaut highlights the OPERA+ Weekend, a 3-day cultural bonanza concluding the 13th edition of Gaulitana: A Festival of Music.
