In the second instalment of this concert series, Puccini - A Life in 7 Women, speaker Shridar Mani will once again guide us through the mastery of Puccini’s music through the exploration of the lives of seven tragic female figures and the recurring theme of “self-sacrifice” in his operas. From the poignant tragedy of Madama Butterfly, where love clashes with cultural divides; to passion and murder in the life of opera diva Floria Tosca; from a destiny straddled between love and material wealth in Manon Lescaut; to the heartrending and inevitable loss of love in Mimi’s death portrayed in La Boheme - each Puccini story offers a glimpse into the frailties of the human condition.
Puccini- A Life in 7 Women features Japanese star soprano Mako Nishimoto, together with Korean soprano Renata Hann, Singapore baritone Martin Ng, and tenor Shaun Lee.
