Violetta Valéry is beautiful, clever, warm-hearted - and terminally ill. Her life as a noble courtesan is preordained. There is no room for private happiness, not even for her love for the young Alfredo Germont, who conquers her heart and wants to save her from the vicious circle of venal love into a carefree private sphere. There she meets her doom in the shape of Alfredo's father Giorgio Germont....

La travi­ata

Theater Duisburg

With the sadistic police chief Scarpia, Giacomo Puccini enriched opera literature with one of its most abysmal characters.
The painter Cavaradossi falls into his clutches when he helps a political prisoner to escape.
But for Scarpia, Cavaradossi is just a decoy through which he can finally win the celebrated singer Tosca.

German Oper am Rhein

La Traviata is the final work in the Trilogia Popolare, Verdi’s trio of masterpieces written between 1850-52. Once again, he was inspired by an outsider: after the jester in Rigoletto and the gypsy Azucena in Il Trovatore, the courtesan Violetta Valéry -- a woman whose charm surpasses her predecessors -- takes center stage here. The Parisian demimonde is the setting for the story of the unconditional and hopeless love between Alfredo Germont and the terminally ill Violetta. From the very beginning, their love is threatened not only by death, but also by the norms of the society and the honor of a family.

La Traviata

Oper Leipzig

Cenerentola is poor: the ill will of her stepfamily makes her life difficult. But unlike in fairy tales, her transformation from Cinderella to a beautiful lady whom Prince Ramiro chooses as his wife is part of a turbulent comedy in which wit and disguise play a major role. For the prince also disguises himself in his search for a bride in order to win over the lady of his heart without being recognised. "La Cenerentola" is considered a masterpiece in the field of opera buffa, and to this day its scenic elegance and humour shine in splendid beauty, carried by spiritedly dazzling music
