NEW YEAR’S CONCERT: Erika Grimaldi rings in the new year at the New Year’s Gala Concert at Genoa’s Teatro Carlo Felice. Under the baton of Hartmut Haenchen, and alongside tenor Fabio Sartori, she will perform two Puccini arias: “Vissi d’arte” from Tosca and “Un bel dì vedremo” from Madama Butterfly.
Just a couple of weeks later, starting January 15, the Piedmontese soprano returns to the Carlo Felice stage as Leonora in Il trovatore.
