Nabucco
by Verdi
(currently on hiatus)
Verdi's third opera, Nabucco, is the work that first brought him international recognition. It tells the story of the captivity of the ancient Hebrews by the Babylonian king Nabucco (Nebuchadnezzar). The biblical events serve as a backdrop for romantic and political intrigue. Today, Nabucco is remembered primarily for "Va pensiero, " the famous Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves...the heartfelt anthem of the Italian Risorgimento. Rich in other musical moments with soaring arias and thundering choruses - Verdi's Nabucco is a tour de force for dramatic soprano and a benchmark opera for the "Verdi baritone".
