Ellen Kent returns to Liverpool next month with two epic Verdi operas: Aida, with a stunning wall of fire, and Nabucco, with special effects.
Ellen says: “I feel I can indulge myself in these operas. I try my best to give the audience the feeling of something epic.”
Chisinau National Opera and Philharmonic Orchestra, with international guest soloists, visit the Liverpool Empire on February 7 (Nabucco) and February 8 (Aida).
About 30 local dancers, children and adults, join the cast on stage.
The tour features international solo sopranos Elena Dee, Olga Busuioc and Zarui Vardanean, and tenor Sorin Lupu.
