TheatreHD Opera Club in GUM Cinema. Anna Bolena. Special screening with Aleksey Parin

This production of 'Anna Bolena' caused a real sensation among European critics and audiences: Anna Netrebko's triumph in the title role was hailed as her greatest achievement since her famous 'La traviata' of 2005 on the Salzburg stage. Netrebko portrayed the usually condemned Anne Boleyn as a deeply wronged woman torn by passion, opening a new chapter in her acting achievements as the prima donna of the Vienna State Opera. 

Netrebko's superb partner in this production was mezzo-soprano Elīna Garanča. The two singers proved to be perfect rivals on stage – their unique voices, striking looks, and astonishing acting left no one indifferent. King Henry VIII, performed by the brilliant Italian bass-baritone Ildebrando D'Arcangelo, was truly fortunate to find himself caught between such forces!
