Amina is cruelly cast off till, throughout her subsequent bout of sleepwalking, Elvino is significantly moved when he hears Amina singing of her adore for him. When Amina awakens, the wedding preparations resume.
The lead singers are renowned for exquisite bel canto performances. The sophisticated young lyric soprano, Rosa Feola, who won 3 prizes at the Plácido Domingo World Opera Competition 2010 and graces the world’s very best stages, honours ROHM with her debut as Amina. Elvino is sung by award-winning tenor Antonino Siracusa who enjoys an illustrious profession in Europe and abroad.
