With an exciting young cast of international singers and innovative staging by Artistic Director Francesca Zambello, the Washington National Opera mounts an invigorating new production of this tragic tale of love, revenge and fate. Conducted by maestra Xian Zhang, The Force of Destiny is bursting with thrilling arias and rousing ensemble passages.
