Verdi’s Il Trovatore
Filled with love, jealousy and blinding hatred, Il Trovatore is Giuseppe Verdi’s most passionate opera. With a lost brother, a child thrown into a fire, and a fatal gypsy curse, it also has one of his intricate plots, while in his music, Verdi combines the dramatic fireworks of the medieval Spain of the story with the lyricism of his native Italy, resulting in one of the composer’s most iconic and memorable works.

Puccini’s La Bohème
Puccini’s La Bohème holds a special place in most opera-goers’ hearts: perhaps the first opera they had seen, or the first to draw tears. Its close-knit composition of exquisite arias and ensemble singing has made it one of the most popular Italian operas of all time. The coming production inaugurates collaboration between Opera Hong Kong and the well-known director Tang Shu-wing, which sees this opera classic set in 19th century-Paris transposed to contemporary Hong Kong.
