A story of pirates on the open seas, battles, and adventure. Chief pirate Corrado is torn by the call of this free and glorious lifestyle and by his true love, Medora. As in the best operas, this one is filled with the full range of emotions – loyalty, passion, jealousy, honor, and despair. Epic in scope and musical offerings
but intimate and personal, Il corsaro will satisfy those with tastes for grand opera but who also seek the heartbreaking beauty of intimate voices.
