The only complete opera by Arrigo Boito, Mefistofele is a riveting adaptation of Goethe’s Faust. John Relyea brings his characteristically booming bass-baritone and energetic stage presence to the title role, opposite Joshua Guerrero as Faust, the aging philosopher yearning for more in life. Maria Agrest sings both the naive Margherita and the mythic Helen of Troy. Michele Mariotti leads the mighty Orchestra and Chorus of the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma in this under-appreciated gem.
