JULIETTE
Roméo et Juliette
National Centre for Performing Arts Beijing
The five-act opera, Roméo et Juliette is a French romantic opera masterpiece by Charles-François Gounod. The libretto recreates the soul of Shakespeare's renowned drama, while Gounod’s music is a wonderful depiction of the two protagonists’ tragic romance. Many of the opera’s characters have exquisite arias, and the two lovers’ many duets are exceedingly beautiful and worthy of the classic.
