  3. Te Koki NZSM Presents Verdi’s Il Corsaro


Set in an exotic land of cruel sultans and alluring harems, we see the invading corsair Corrado confront Seid, the evil Pasha who would brutally take Corrado’s life. Gulnara, the Pasha’s favoured concubine, tries to convince Corrado to kill Seid so she can pursue her newly-conceived passion for the young pirate. He refuses to act so dishonorably and she commits the bloody deed with her own hands – but things don’t end well….

Honouring Verdi in his 200th anniversary year, Te Koki New Zealand School of Music presents the New Zealand premiere performances of this three act opera by the great Italian composer. Featuring students who are the new generation of operatic and orchestral stars, Il Corsaro is conducted by Kenneth Young and directed by Sara Brodie – who also led the creative team behind NZSM’s Semele (2009) and A Midsummer Night’s Dream (2011).
