Opera: Turandot

The story of Turandot is a musically shimmering, dramatic tale about the fate of a princess in ancient China. Puccini’s romantic tonal language, with one of the world’s most beloved arias, »Nessun dorma«, is a moving story from beginning to end. At the premiere in 2013, Svenska Dagbladet wrote about an excellent performance, »an interpretation which unites humanity and energy in a way that makes the audience gasp«. The first performance of the revival is on 25 April, 2026 – exactly 100 years after the world premiere of the original production of Turandot at La Scala in Milan, 25 April, 1926!
