We were pleased to attend one of the last performances of Rigoletto presented by the LA Opera. This opera demonstrates what Grand Opera is all about — emotional music and gripping drama. Some of the memorable arias include “La donna mobile” & Gilda’s dreamy “Cara Nome”. As the bitter Court Jester, Rogoletto, Ambrogio Maestri was magnificent; but I particularly loved gorgeous Adela Zaharia, who made her US debut as Gilda. The clarity and pureness of her voice earned a standing ovation from the jam packed audience.
