About

Francesco Cilea is best remembered for his operas L’Arlesiana and Adriana Lecouvreur, but his final opera Gloria is a genuine rarity. Set in medieval Siena against the backdrop of conflicts between the Guelphs and Ghibellines, Gloria is a tragic tale of love and revenge that can be seen as a variation on the story of Romeo and Juliet. Filled with beautiful melodies accompanied by rich and refined orchestral sonorities, Gloria reveals itself after years of neglect as a precious masterpiece in this acclaimed production from the Teatro Lirico di Cagliari.

Awards and reviews

Opera Now Summer 2025

Cilluffo is in his element here… Anastasia Bartoli makes much of the title role, her soprano gutsy in the right way – there’s no point being shy here – and Carlo Ventre matches her well as an impassioned Lionetto.
