Puccini’s Il Trittico out on DVD
Asmik’s performance of Puccini’s Il Trittico at the Salzburger Festspiele last summer is to be released on DVD on 28th July. This new production, directed by Christof Loy and co-produced with the Opéra national de Paris, was met with great acclaim. Tagesspiegel praised Ms. Grigorian’s performance, claiming: “this singer-actress with the large, agile voice can slip into any skin as if it were her own.” She performed all three of the lead female roles: Lauretta (Gianni Schicchi) alongside as Misha Kiria as Gianni Schicchi and Alexey Neklyudov as Rinuccio; Giorgetta (Il Tabarro), with Roman Burdenko as Michele and Joshua Guerrero as Luigi, and the title role in Suor Angelica, alongside Karita Mattila as La Zia Principessa and Giulia Semenzato as Suor Genovieffa. The three one-act operas were conducted by Maestro Franz Welser-Möst.
