About the Event

Experience opera like never before in this astonishing performance of Verdi's masterwork at the remarkable Cinema Teatro Aurora in Firenze‐Scandicci.

Alfredo Germont and the courtesan Violetta Valéry fall in love at a party in Violetta's Paris salon. Alfredo is determined to cure Violetta of her tuberculosis and the couple leave Paris to begin a contented life in the country. But Violetta's happiness is shattered when Alfredo's father Giorgio Germont visits her.
Violetta's scandalous relationship with Alfredo threatens the engagement of Giorgio Germont's daughter, and Germont persuades Violetta to leave his son. Heartbroken, Violetta promises not to tell Alfredo why. Alfredo is stunned when Violetta disappears, and decides that she must have left him out of self‐interest. He confronts her at a Paris party and leaves. Only when Violetta is dying does he learn the truth.

Giuseppe Verdi

Giuseppe Verdi was an Italian opera composer. From a young age, he developed a musical education with the help of a patron and soon dominated the Italian opera. In fact by his 30s, he became one of the most influential opera composer all over the classical scene. His most famous operas are Il Trovatore, Rigoletto and La Traviata. Furthermore, he was able to establish himself as a landowner with the income from his successful operas and focus on his private life.
