Teatro di San Carlo: Rusalka

Captured live from Naples’ splendid San Carlo Theatre – the world’s oldest continuously running public opera venue - where it opened the company’s theatrical season, acclaimed director Dmitri Tcherniakov stages a new production of Dvořák’s beautiful, supremely romantic opera about a water sprite Rusalka (here the stunning soprano Asmik Grigorian) who longs to find love.
