La Cenerentola(Cinderella)is an opera by Rossini. Despite not being that popular,it is a very nice opera. This production is immensely fun ,especially the dinner scene and gives a fairytale like vibes. Joyce DiDonato as Angelina(Cinderella)is very sweet and sings beautifully in the title role(Angelina is one of the leading mezzo soprano roles). Juan Diego Florez is handsome and sings nicely as Don Ramiro,the prince. Allesandro Corbelli as Don Magnifico brings out the nastiness,without ever becoming too much off a buffon. Pietro Spagnelli is good as Dandini,the valet .In this opera,Dandini,is the fairy like figure. Overall,very hgood production and slightly better than 2009 Cinderella.7/10.
