Spazju Kreattiv is today presenting an encore screening of the Met Opera’s new production of Bellini’s masterpiece Norma.
The opera stars Maltese tenor Joseph Calleja as Norma’s unfaithful lover Pollione, Sondra Radvanovsky as the Druid priestess and Joyce DiDonato as her archrival, Adalgisa. The conductor is Carlo Rizzi.
Norma examines an ageless and archetypal situation: a powerful woman compromises her ideals for love, only to find herself betrayed by her lover. Equally gripping is her relationship with the younger woman who is the new object of her former lover’s attention and in whom Norma sees both a rival and a second self.
Norma is being screened today at the St James Cavalier cinema, Valletta, at 7pm. For tickets visit www.kreattivita.org.
