Il Trittico

This evening of one-acts is like a lavish three-course dinner, prepared by a master and promising something for everyone's taste. Not since 1952 have San Francisco audiences had the rare opportunity to enjoy this unique work the way its creator intended—in its entirety and with an ideal cast. Soprano Patricia Racette, "a consummate singing actress" (Chicago Tribune) whose many San Francisco Opera triumphs include her incisive portrait of Cio-Cio San in Madama Butterfly (2007), is featured in all three operas. Also performing are baritone Paolo Gavanelli, who performed the title roles of San Francisco Opera's Rigoletto and Nabucco to great acclaim; tenor Brandon Jovanovich, who co-starred with Racette in Butterfly; and the celebrated contralto Ewa Podles´, making her belated Company debut.
