NSO Summer Lunchtime

Live, laugh, love in the first of our Summer Lunchtime concerts. Masterful conductor Anthony Gabriele serves up colourful orchestral showpieces by Dvořák (the ebullient Carnival Overture), Mascagni (Cavalleria Rusticana’s lilting Intermezzo), Smetana (The Bartered Bride’s effervescent Dance of the Comedians), and Verdi (the rousing Triumphal March from Aida).

‘Incandescent’ (The Stage) soprano Kathleen Nic Dhiarmada delivers three of opera’s most affecting arias: the sublime yearning of Dvořák's ‘Song to the Moon’, Puccini’s amorously charged ‘Quando m’en vo’ from La bohème, and Verdi’s ravishing ‘È strano…ah fors’è lui…sempre libera’ from La traviata.
