Penny Gore presents a production of Puccini's Il trittico from the Bavarian State Opera, conducted by Kirill Petrenko

Jealousy and murder, loss and suicide, romance and trickery all feature in Puccini's trilogy of one-act operas, taking us from the gritty banks of the River Seine, to a convent doomed to tragedy, finally on to knock-about comedy
