Il Parnaso Confuso is a witty and playful work that imagines the Muses of Mount Parnassus competing over who should perform at a royal wedding. The opera blends satire and charm, revealing the creative rivalries among the goddesses of music and poetry. The cast features Gillian Zammit as Apollo, Cledia Micallef as Euterpe, Gabrielle Portelli as Erato, and Caterina Iora as Melpomene.
La Corona presents a more dramatic and heroic tone, recounting the myth of the Calydonian Boar Hunt. The opera revolves around the question of who among the brave warriors deserves the honour of slaying the beast. Ultimately, the glory is attributed to the goddess Diana. Francesca Aquilina takes the role of Atalanta, with Gillian Zammit as Meleagro, Caterina Iora as Climene, and Bettina Zammit as Asteria.
Together, these operas offer a compelling evening of contrasting tones brought to life by a largely Maltese cast and creative team.
