Description
Enjoy an abridged concert performance of this beloved bel canto comedy at OperaDelaware Studios! Penny-pinching bachelor Don Pasquale wants his nephew to marry for money, but young Ernesto has other plans—he’s smitten with the lovely (but poor) Norina. When the lovers discover Don Pasquale’s plan to disinherit his rebellious nephew, they team up with the cunning Dr. Malatesta and hatch an outrageous plan to walk down the aisle and teach Pasquale a lesson. It’s going to be a boisterous battle of wits and wills, all set to Donizetti’s sparkling score.
Music by Gaetano Donizetti
Libretto by Giovanni Ruffini
Performed in Italian with English supertitles
