Rossini’s charming take on the Cinderella story features a brilliant cast, led by bel canto stars Adèle Charvet in the title role and Levy Sekgapane as her Prince Charming. Vincenzo Taormina delivers a comic tour de force as Don Magnifico, Cinderella’s stepfather. Florian Sempey is Dandini, the Prince’s valet, who, disguised as his master, puts the prospective brides to the test, and Alex Rosen is the philosopher Alidoro, who takes the place of the fairy godmother. Conductor Michele Spotti, leads the Chorus and Orchestre National du Capitole, Toulouse
