OPERATIC ONIRICON

Operatic Oniricon is a journey into the subconscious: the realm of dreams, unconscious desires, and archetypes will set the scene for Italian arias and ensembles. The show is also a tribute to Federico Fellini and takes its name after a newspaper column in which the brilliant director interpreted his readers' dreams. Drawing inspiration from his aesthtitcs, we try to decipher all the meanings expressed in the operas by Rossini, Donizetti and Bellini performed by the members of the Opera Academy.
