I Capuleti e i Montecchi

The timeless tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, reborn through the breathtaking beauty of Bellini's bel canto.

2022 · 150 min · Drama, Romance

The tragedy of Romeo and Juliet and their forbidden love has inspired countless versions, from opera to cinema. Among the most evocative is that by Vincenzo Bellini, one of the most infrequently performed bel canto composers. I Capuleti e i Montecchi returns to La Scala in a new production conducted by Speranza Scappucci and marking the debut of Adrian Noble, artistic director of the Royal Shakespeare Company for thirteen years. The cast features some of the most outstanding contemporary Bellini voices.
