An opera never performed before in Florence. On the podium Lawrence Renes, a great promoter of Adams’ music who has frequently directed and recorded; the direction and the scenes are by Luca Guadagnino, for the first time at the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino. The Death of Klinghoffer questions, from its very first appearance, the profound complexity of conflicts that are rooted in myth and then burst into history” – comments director Luca Guadagnino, who also signs the sets - “The sublime purity of John Adams’ music and Alice Goodman’s libretto will be my firm guide in staging this immense opera at the Maggio Fiorentino, which I am honored to open in the 2026 season”.
