It is common knowledge that Giuseppe Verdi, by nature a critical man, not only found much to disapprove of in the trends of his day but also subjected his own work to a continuous process of editing and revision.

Don Carlo

Deutsche Oper Berlin

The somewhat down-and-out knight Falstaff, who is blessed with self-confidence, makes his way in life as a man of action and searches for money and amorous adventures. He may not be successful, but Falstaff always wins the hearts of the audience. Conclusion of the cheerfully witty opera:"Everything is fun on earth!"

Falstaff

Vienna State Opera

He takes her home and marries her. But Pelléas also feels strangely attracted to her and seeks her out more and more. Finally, Mélisande also confesses her love for him. However, their escape together is prevented by the jealous Golaud: He kills Pelléas and seriously injures his pregnant wife. After the birth of their child - a daughter - Mélisande dies.
