Verdi’s Aida is presented at the Royal Opera House in Robert Carsen’s modern staging, which places the opera’s private conflicts within a stark, contemporary visual world. Power, ritual and control form the backdrop to a drama driven by divided loyalties and impossible choices. Elena Stikhina sings the title role, alongside Francesco Meli as Radamès and Agnieszka Rehlis as Amneris, with Antonio Pappano conducting the Orchestra and Chorus of the Royal Opera House. Discover an Aida that grips through atmosphere and intensity, allowing Verdi’s drama to feel newly alive.
