The young woman has had no news from her relatives for seven years. Finally she receives a visit from the princess, her aunt, who unceremoniously announces to her that her son has died. Desperate, Sister Angelica decides to end her life in order to join her child in death.
The performance will be sung in Italian (English scene notes will be provided) and will be followed by supper.
