Arab News spoke to Paolo Petrocelli, head of Dubai Opera, about how the calendar caters to the city’s famously diverse demographics.
The season launched in September with Giacomo Puccini’s opera “La Boheme,” Ludwig van Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony and the “Emperor” piano concerto, and Tchaikovsky’s “Swan Lake” ballet.
The shows have been “carefully curated to reflect the cosmopolitan identity of Dubai,” Petrocelli said.
