La Traviata
Giuseppe Verdi (1813-1901)
Opera in three acts
With libretto by Francesco Maria Piave
With Greek surtitles
La Traviata describes the love affair between the courtesan Violetta Valéry and Alfredo Germont, a scion of a good family in Paris. The affair provokes a reaction from the young man’s family. The couple divorced and met again shortly before the girl’s death. Famous arias and duets dress up one of the most beloved stories of great love thwarted by social conventions.
The premiere of La Traviata in 1853 at the Teatro La Fenice in Venice is usually cited as one of the greatest failures in the history of opera. Today, Verdi’s masterpiece is one of the most popular works, with hundreds of performances each year in opera houses around the world and thousands of audiences watching ecstatically.
