Violetta is one of opera's most iconic heroines
. However, the premiere of La Traviata
scandalized the audience with its critique of the bourgeoisie and its vices,
resulting in an initial failure. This work, based on
a contemporary text, anticipates the dramas of the
realist school.
The score shows Verdi at his best:
with dramatically effective music and innovative
in harmony, melody, and rhythm. The prelude is exemplary,
alluding both to Violetta's frivolous life and to the
central themes of love and death. Verdi breaks
musical molds by opening with the image of
the protagonist's death, then moving on to her
suffering, her love for Alfredo, and, finally, the
carefree Parisian party.
