The birds chirp and spread their wings – Nedda longs to fly away from the suffocating clown cage in which she is subject to the control of her husband Canio, while still in love with Silvio.
This week in a moment of opera, David Sebba presents Nedda’s aria from Leoncavallo’s Pagliacci, in the moving performance of Alla Vasilevitsky.
Direction and piano: David Sebba
Soloist: Alla Vasilevitsky
