Giuseppe Verdi's three-act opera, Un Ballo in Maschera, a production by China's National Center for the Performing Arts, has opened the 2019 NCPA Opera Festival.
The headline opera is being staged in Beijing from April 10 to 14 and features the NCPA Orchestra and NCPA Chorus under the baton of Chinese conductor Lyu Jia.
It is the third Verdi opera to be produced by the NCPA after La Traviata and Rigoletto. The work, which premiered at the NCPA in 2012, is directed by Argentine director Hugo de Ana, who is also the set and costume designer.
