La Traviata posted on 30 September 2011

With handpicked soloists, a highly-praised chorus, and full orchestra.

The love story that gripped Paris.

A tragic tale of searing passion and memorable music, La Traviata is Verdi's outstanding interpretation of one of the most popular love stories of the 19th century, La dame aux Camelias.

Based on a true story, it tells of the passionate consumptive Violetta. There are many echoes of Verdi's own life in Traviata and he threw himself into the music. The highlights include the Brindisi, the best known drinking song in opera, the duet Un Di Felice and Violetta's haunting aria Addio Del Passato.

This magnificent production boasts sumptuous sets and costumes.

Sung in Italian with English surtitles.
