2015. The program was filmed in the historic Castello Giusso in Vico Equense on the Amalfi Coast. The docu-concert pays homage to the opera legend by taking the audience on a musical journey in Italy, highlighting the life, career and songs that made Caruso an international star. Maestro Placido Domingo collaborated in the program with an intimate interview. The PBS special had over 220 million potential viewers, coupled with a current live touring version. Esposito had his successful debut at San Francisco Opera in June 2015 with the premiere of Marco Tutino’s “Two Women” (an opera adaptation of the 1960s film “La Ciociara” with Sophia Loren, with whom he had the pleasure of sharing the stage in her recent U.S. tour). The New York Times stated that Esposito sang with “airy charm” for his performance of “Ragazzo del Popolo,” while the San Francisco Chronicle described Esposito as “a charismatic and dulcet-toned singer.” All seats for the event are $39.
