La Traviata

O wydarzeniu

In celebration of the bicentennial of Giuseppe Verdi’s birth, the Atlanta Opera’s second opera of the season will be the tale of opera’s most beloved “fallen woman,” La traviata.

Based on La dame aux Camélias (1852), a play adapted from a novel by Alexandre Dumas, Verdi’s La traviata tells the story of Violetta, a worldly courtesan who is forced to give up the love of her life in this tale of lavish revelry, family strife, unfortunate misunderstanding and selfless sacrifice. La traviata is a treasured classic overflowing with memorable music. Both longtime opera lovers and first‐timers will be touched by this romantic tragedy.
