About

In Donizetti’s opera Maria Stuarda, the rôles of the doomed queen and her cousin, Elizabeth I, have been taken by some of the greatest divas, from Malibran to Gruberova and Tosi to Baltsa, each revelling in the high drama of their tragically linked fates.

Cast:
- Elisabetta: Laura Polverelli
- Maria Stuarda: Maria Pia Piscitelli
- Anna Kennedy: Giovanna Lanza
- Roberto, conte di Leicester: Roberto De Biasio
- Talbot: Simone Alberghini
- Cecil: Mario Cassi

Contributing greatly to the success of the work, the young Maestro Riccardo Frizza revealed himself as a deep and sensitive interpreter of this score, managing to capture all the nuances of Donizetti’s music … Laura Polverelli portrayed with elegance and pride the character of Elizabeth, her furies, doubts and jealousies; Maria Pia Piscitelli was a wonderful Maria Stuarda, passionate, sorrowful, proud, dignified when sentenced to death, recalling her past sins yet conscious of her innocence.” - MusiCulturA
