I Virtuosi dell'opera di Roma: La Traviata

Over het evenement

Enjoy Verdi's La Traviata! The libretto by Francesco Maria Piave is based on the novel and play 'La Dame aux Camelias' by Alexandre Dumas' son. The much loved opera in three acts was first performed 6th March 1853 at the Teatro La Fenice, Venice.

After the highly successful premiere of Rigoletto at La Fenice in March 1851, Verdi was commissioned to deliver an opera for that house, to be performed in March 1853. He spent some time in Paris during the winter of 1851/52 and there he saw a daring new play by Alexandre Dumas: 'La Dame aux Camelias'. However, Verdi did not decide on this subject right away. The theatre forced Verdi to abandon the contemporary setting and relocate the action back to the year 1700. This rankled Verdi enormously, but he accepted, relieved that the libretto had passed the censor quite quickly and with less trouble than he was used to encountering in Venice.

Praktische informatie

Een van de oudste tradities van het theater is het pastabuffet. Deze traditie is tot op de dag van vandaag gehandhaafd, en er zal een kleine pastaproeverij zijn op de begane grond van het theater voor de voorstelling of tijdens de pauze.

    This was my first opera and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a small theatre but I think this adds to the amazing voices of the singers. There was food provided for free…not sure what as we didn't have any. I'm hooked now and would like to see more. Excellent evening !!
