The composer Salvatore Sciarrino stands at the forefront of Italy’s musical avant-garde. His chamber opera Luci mie traditrici (‘Oh My Betraying Eyes’) was inspired by the case of the Renaissance nobleman and composer Carlo Gesualdo. This production of the opera was first performed at the Cantiere Internazionale d’Arte di Montepulciano, Tuscany, during July 2010. It has been recognised as the finest production of this work presented to date. The composer himself has stated that it is the reference point for the opera’s performance.
