The 5 Best Venues to Experience Opera in Rome<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

1) Teatro dell\u2019Opera<\/h2>\n

Since it\u2019s opening in 1880 Rome\u2019s Teatro dell\u2019Opera<\/em> has staged some of opera\u2019s most magnificent and prestigious performances. From the world premier of Puccini\u2019s Tosca to star performances from Enrico Caruso, Maria Callas and Joan Sutherland, the theater attracts the best musical talent in the world.<\/p>\n

And the Teatro dell\u2019Opera<\/em>\u00a0is perhaps most recognized\u00a0for one particular concert; the first performance of The Three Tenors, Jose Carreras, Placido Domingo and the legendary Luciano Pavarotti on 7th<\/sup> July 1990. The trio sang in the ancient Roman Baths of Caracalla, the Teatro\u2019s<\/em> open-air summer home. Their well-chosen set list, covering\u00a0several different compositions, would introduce opera to a much wider audience.\u00a0And\u00a0the spectacular, spine-tingling and totally unforgettable finale of Nessun Dorma<\/em> from Puccini\u2019s Turandot would take them and the teatro to stratospheric levels, with the album\u00a0of the concert going on to become the best-selling classical album of all time.<\/p>\n

Today the theater’s sensational summer season encompasses 25 evenings of premiere opera with La Traviata, a new production of Verdi\u2019s Nabucco, The Barber of Seville and personal favorite Madame Butterfly. Our travel experts are on standby to help you to your Teatro dell’Opera<\/em><\/strong> seats, guaranteeing a thoroughly unforgettable evening under the stars.<\/p>\n

2) Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia<\/h2>\n
\"opera<\/a>

From the ancient Roman baths we move on to the National Academy of St Cecilia<\/strong>, one of the world\u2019s oldest musical institutions. Founded in 1585 by a Papal bull, or charter, \u00a0the academy took its name from Saint Cecilia, the patron saint of music. It started out as a conservatory for local musicians and composers and, thanks to the patronage of successive Popes, grew into an internationally acclaimed musical academy.<\/p>\n

Today the Academy is headquartered in the state-of-the-art Parco della Musica in the city center. Designed by renowned architect Renzo Piano, the park is composed of 4 separate venues. From an outdoor amphitheater, to 3 brand new concert halls, the largest of which is the Sala Santa Cecilia, all add a distinctly different dimension to the operatic experience. And thanks to its long illustrious history the academy attracts some of the best contemporary artists, musicians and operas.<\/p>\n

This summer the grand Sala Santa Cecilia will be hosting performances of Amadeus Mozart\u2019s comic masterpiece, Cos\u00ec fan tutte.<\/em> With words by Lorenzo Da Ponte and a title usually translated as \u201cWomen are like that,\u201d the opera follows 6 characters, two pairs of lovers, a philosopher friend of the four and a maidservant. Comedy ensues when attempts to test the women\u2019s faithfulness lead to disguises, deception and seduction. But don\u2019t worry, we can help you with tickets to Cos\u00ec fan tutte<\/em><\/strong> to find out how ends!<\/p>\n

3) I Virtuosi dell’opera di Roma at the Salone Margherita Theater<\/h2>\n
\"opera<\/a>
La Traviata<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I virtuosi dell\u2019opera di Roma<\/em><\/strong>, literally the opera prodigies of Rome, formed as an operatic group in 1998 with the sole aim of reviving and performing the best lyrical opera available. And\u00a0their main home, the Salone Margherita\u00a0Theater,<\/em>\u00a0makes this an unforgettable evening.<\/p>\n

The Salone first opened in the heart of Rome, close to the Spanish Steps, in 1898 as the Caf\u00e9 Chantant, a place where people could meet, drink and dine before watching a concert or show. The name was a direct homage to Margherita of Savoia, the first wife of Italy\u2019s King Umberto and also \u2013 fun fact – the inspiration for the Margherita pizza whose tomatoes, basil and cheese represent the Italian flag!<\/p>\n

The Salone\u2019s upstairs boxes double as personal dining rooms for spectators before the opera. And today, over 100 years since it opened, you can book a 5-course meal in one of the private boxes, choosing from a menu designed especially for each opera. Dinner and a concert all in your own private room – how\u2019s that for a uniquely romantic way to experience opera in Rome<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

Alternatively you can also enjoy an intimate candlelit evening of enchanting arias<\/strong> at the group\u2019s second home, the Church of St Paul Within the Walls, close to the Piazza della Repubblica. The evening includes some of the most acclaimed songs from legendary composers such as Verdi, Puccini, Mozart and Rossini giving you a wonderful introduction to the world of opera in Rome. It\u2019s a fantastic addition to your visit and a truly Italian experience to treasure as the virtuosi bring the past alive.<\/p>\n

4)\u00a0Opera Omnia at the\u00a0Galleria Doria Pamphilj<\/h2>\n

Our last suggestion is a bit different as rather than being based in one place, the Opera Omnia group is a roving ensemble<\/strong> taking opera out into Rome and using some of the city\u2019s most spectacular locations as backdrops for their operatic evenings.<\/p>\n

From the sumptuous baroque Galleria Doria Pamphilj to the Gothic skull-clad Capuchin crypt of the Church of Santa Maria Immacolata. Or the fabulous marble-lined halls of Palazzo Barberini housing one of the most important painting collections in Italy to the glorious 17th<\/sup> century Church of Sant\u2019Agnese in Agone in Piazza Navona, the Opera Omnia pick the best\u00a0settings for their music.<\/p>\n

Why not add an absolutely enthralling evening to your trip with the group\u2019s \u201cSounds and vi<\/strong>s<\/strong>ions of Caravaggio\u201d performance in the Doria Pamphilj Palace<\/strong>. On arrival, you\u2019ll be greeted and given a fantastic private tour of the gallery exploring the\u00a0almost unrivaled art collection. Not only will you see Caravaggio\u2019s famous \u201cchiaroscuro\u201d light and dark techniques in his paintings but you can also admire works by art giants including Tiziano, Raffaello, Bernini and Valazquez to name just a few.<\/p>\n

For many, private access to the gallery is a treat in itself but the evening is topped off with a short recital from Opera Omnia in the Sala del Trono<\/em> or Throne Room. And the music is played on instruments from Caravaggio\u2019s days, many of which are also visible in his artwork. So whether you\u2019re an art lover or an opera lover or both, this is a simply heavenly evening!<\/p>\n

5) Opera Omnia at the Capuchin Crypt<\/h2>\n

And finally, if you have a taste for the alternative, or fancy an absolutely unique evening of opera in Rome, why not check out the group\u2019s \u201cMusic, art and mystery\u201d<\/strong> evening in the absolutely\u00a0fascinating Capuchin Crypt. Decorated with the skulls and bones of over 4000 friars, the Church of Santa Maria Immacolata\u2019s crypt is startling to say the least. But if you can see past the macabre, it\u00a0is the perfect place for an exceptional evening of music.<\/p>\n

And as befits the unique location, the evening ranges from Gregorian chants to ancient Occidental music to Roman polyphony, a multi-layered style of singing linked to Papal Rome. All the artistry of Italian music wrapped up in the most singular spot of the Eternal City for a totally immersive evening. Perfetto!<\/em><\/p>\n

Please take your seats ladies and gentlemen!<\/h2>\n

Italy is synonymous with many things from the church, to ancient history, art and sculpture but there can be few better ways to pass an evening than with a night at the opera in Rome. There are plenty of venues to choose from too. From galleries to crypts, from salones to palaces, all adding a special atmosphere and sumptuous surroundings.
