SUMMARY:Nabucco
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:It was his first great success\, in a sense\, his breakthrough:
  Nabucco. Premiered at Milan’s Scala in the spring of 1842\, this work m
 arks the start of the brilliant career of Giuseppe Verdi\, who would becom
 e the leading Italian opera composer\, going virtually unrivalled for deca
 des. Set in biblical times in Jerusalem and Babylon\, Nabucco deals with t
 he fates of two peoples and cultures\, but also the arrogance of the prota
 gonist\, who with an inflated sense of self-importance declares himself a 
 god\, only then to descend into madness. Tableaux with ceremonial gestures
  and poignant music\, such as the famous chorus “Va pensiero” sung by 
 the imprisoned Hebrews\, are combined with scenes of intense expression\, 
 filled with drama and passion.
