La Traviata
– A moving story about a woman in love that features one of opera’s most famous melodies (the ‘Brindisi’ chorus), La Traviata is perfect for first-timers and a favourite among regular opera-goers.
Giacomo Sagripanti conducts a starry cast headlined by Stephen Costello (Alfredo), Pretty Yende (Violetta) and Vladimir Stoyanov (Giorgio).
In director Richard Eyre’s world of seductive grandeur, the tender and devastating beauty at the centre of Verdi’s opera shines bright.
