San Francisco Opera

La_Boheme_10-17-2015

San Francisco Opera broadcasts continue on Classical 90.5 at noon this Saturday, October 17, with a performance of La Bohème by Giacomo Puccini, set to a libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa. The performance will be sung in Italian and will run approximately two hours.

When an aspiring poet falls in love with a fragile seamstress, their intense passion is only matched by their youthful idealism. Can their tender relationship survive the cruelties of life? John Caird, the director of two of the biggest stage hits of recent years, Les Misérables and Nicholas Nickleby, brings his unique touch to this new production of Puccini’s beloved opera. Resident Conductor Giuseppe Finzi leads the ensemble.
