The running time for this production is approximately 80 minutes.
In Rossini’s own words, “Is it indeed music for the blest that I have written, or just some blessed music?” In this effervescent concert work, the final masterpiece of a prolific opera composer in the twilight of his life, Maestro Plácido Domingo conducts a quartet of soloists—featuring tenor phenomenon Andrea Bocelli—with the Washington National Opera Chorus and Orchestra. Two performances only!
