Giacomo Puccini wrote what was supposed to be his last opera at a time where, riddled with disease and old age as he was, he felt like his own turmoil was reflected in the outside world: itself staggering, unsteady, overwhelmed and smashed by the chaos of European diplomacy. In spite of these obstacles, he persevered and worked until the very end of his life on this opera that he left unfinished but that proved to be a “way out” for him in many ways. Drawn from an ancient Persian epic from the 13th century, Turandot was indeed an excuse to escape into a new dramatic universe, one made of unexpected sounds and symbols. Here, in a world removed both geographically and chronologically from his own reality, he gave into the seductive powers of exoticism and eroticism, just as his own heroin Princess Turandot abandons herself to the mysteries of love and forgiveness.
After twenty years of absence, Puccini’s Turandot was revived on the stage of the Teatro Real in a new production by American stage director Robert Wilson. One of the most important theatre and visual artist of our times, the director who gave life to Philip Glass’s Einstein of the Beach and who reinvented Debussy’s Pelléas et Mélisande hadn’t worked on a Puccini opera in twenty-five years, since his ground-breaking Madama Butterfly commissioned by the Paris Opera in 1993. This new encounter between his powerful visual universe and Puccini’s evocative music was bound to be an outstanding event. Carried out by a brilliant cast of singers, dominated by Irene Theorin as Turandot, Gregory Kunde as Calaf and Yolanda Auyanet as Liù, this magnificent production is conducted by the Teatro Real’s associate musical director Nicola Luisotti - and has been met with universal acclaim.

I loved the staging. It completely transformed the opera. The finale is just stunning.
Fortunately, the splendor of the music of this opera is able to survive every cockamamie design concept that's thrown at it.
There's nothing cockamamie about it.
The most ridiculous comment ever.
reminds me of Klaus Nomi
Never has "Turandot" been staged more beautifully. In comparison, the Metropolitan Opera's circus production is genuine, pure kitsch.
That “kitschy” Met Turandot has been around for 36 years and to this day still gets tremendous applause from audiences. Will this Wilson produzione di merda be around in 2 years? 😂😂😂 look, Wilson’s constrained and stilted movement is against everything that full blooded Italian opera is about. Wilson productions are better left to modern works (mid century forward) where his peculiar style fits better.
@@Bacchusmbt The Met audience is the most unsophisticated audience in the world when it come to production values. In general, New York theaters are 70 years behind the sophistication of Berlin or other major capitals in Europe. The US has some interesting playwrights, but US audiences are hillbillies when it comes to the visual rhetoric of theater. The Met has a great orchestra and chorus, but its productions are provincial kitsch, and when it tries to do avant-garde, it falls flat on its face. I would encourage you to take a beginner's course in the history of theater and stage design. And camp has its place in the world of art, for example, Andy Warhol. I put Zeffirelli in the same category. He is camp sans le savoir.
O'Brien/Firth production (1983 Vienna) is still the superior staging. now THAT is one that warrants a revival and still stands the test of time. damn near perfect imo
Великолепно
La belleza de Turandot produce que no se noten demasiado los defectos vocales de una Theorin suficiente pero muy estridente en los pasajes agudos, que aborda con un vibrato excesivo, algo no bello. En cuanto a Kunde sus calidades nos las sabemos muy bien pero es una voz que ha pasado por un montón de vicisitudes y estados...lírico ligero, lírico...hasta quedar en esta medianía de Calaf que ofrece en esta representación. Tampoco, por otra parte, opino, sea un rol muy adecuado para él. La gran sorpresa y maravilla de esta representación, estimo es una enorme Liú, representada con una sonoridad, una belleza y una exquisitez excelentes por Yolanda Auyanet.
Bravo, Wilson!
i loved this staging... It is simbolistic and the simbolism was in vogue is 1911, so it makes sense.
