Dear Juvenilians,

In collaboration with the young friends’ association My Muse & Me (MM&M) of the Dutch National Opera (DNO), we present during this year’s Amsterdam event a stunning combination of two much-acclaimed Italian classics: Roberto Devereux by Donizetti and Il Trittico by Puccini.

The doomed-to-fail love affair of Queen Elizabeth is the subject of Donizetti’s Roberto Devereux. This new production is part of a cycle of Tudor-inspired Donizetti operas presented by the Dutch National Opera, of which this opera is the third installment after Anna Bolena (2022) and Maria Stuarda (2023).

Puccini’s Il Trittico is quickly regaining popularity across stages worldwide, and consists of a series of three short operas: two tragedies (Il Tabarro and Suor Angelica) and one comedy (Gianni Schicchi). After Tosca (in 2022) and Turandot (also in 2022), this new production will be the third Puccini directed by Barrie Kosky at the Dutch National Opera. Note: we are going to the premiere, so bring your best outfits!

This year, the General Assembly, including the election of the new Juvenilia board, will take place in Amsterdam. Details about the election process will be shared in a separate announcement to all the Juvenilia member clubs. Note that, if you plan to apply for the Board, it is highly advised to participate in this event and join the General Assembly in person!
