The Rhine in the Theater Koblenz Premiere Musical Theatre

Theater Koblenz

Azucena swears revenge. Her mother was burned as a witch by the old Count Luna. She kidnaps one of his sons, but in her madness kills her own son. She then raises the kidnapped Manrico - but his true origins remain a secret. In the later civil war for the succession to the throne of Aragon, Manrico not only faces the young Count Luna on the battlefield, they also vie for the love of the lady-in-waiting Leonora. Neither of them knows that they are actually brothers... In "Il trovatore", Giuseppe Verdi tells a story full of twists and turns, driven by love, jealousy and revenge. His music is just as varied as the emotions of his characters and gives the opera, which takes place almost entirely at night, its dark mood. With its wealth of melodies, the opera has been a mainstay of the musical theater repertoire since its premiere in 1853.
