Rossini, The Journey to Reims – Wolf Trap Opera Company June 23, 2013

Il viaggio a Reims
New production, sung in Italian with English supertitles. Approximate running time 3 hours

Rossini’s Journey to Reims features a group of international travelers who converge on one tiny spa hotel en route to the coronation of Charles X. Alliances and dalliances abound–but will they manage to make it to the festivities on time? Conducted by Gary Thor Wedow and directed by David Gately, this new production is designed and built specifically for The Barns and features astounding feats of bel canto singing performed by a remarkable ensemble cast of 12 soloists.
