Teatro alla Scala, Milano
Nabucco LIVE
Giuseppe Verdi
The opera of “Va’ pensiero” brought Verdi, not yet thirty, an international success which stretched from Europe to America.
The protagonist Leo Nucci guides a company of singers that is necessarily hardened, given the subject at hand.
It is a coral opera of biblical majesty, in which the threatening Babylonian emperor stalks through a world of contrasts, starting with that of the Jewish people who he has subjugated. The incisive and inventive slant of the music gives life to interwoven events served with a generous helping of pride, resentment, superstition and the spirit of conversion.
