The Met did a great production of IL TRITTICO about 12 years ago, and SUOR ANGELICA was a revelation; profoundly moving and unforgettable. The Met also did the world premiere as well.

Does any opera house still perform all three operas in Il Trittico on the same night? I would have classified them as "tragedy," "even worse tragedy," and then suddenly "comedy." I can't imagine listening to the first two and then getting jolted with Gianni Schicchi, even with "O mio Babbino...". I've only seen the second and third performed by themselves, and does anyone in the world ever do "Il Tabarro"?
