Giuseppe Verdi was born in obscurity in a tiny Italian village in 1813. When he died in 1901, hundreds of thousands of people turned out to pay their respects to the man whom many people consider as the best opera composer of all time. His career spanned more than half a century and included such successes as Rigoletto, La Traviata, Il Trovatore, Otello, Falstaff, and Aida, the most often-performed work at New York s Metropolitan Opera. Yet when he applied at a famous music school in Milan, he was turned down because he was lacking in musical talent. He not only proved the school wrong but became an important figure in Italian politics during the turbulent era when the scattered provinces came together to form a new nation. Along the way, he overcame obstacles such as the death of his first wife and two small children and the humiliation of being booed during the premiere of one of his early operas.

The rule of power in Europe is changing... Born in Italy at the tumultuous end of France’s influence in Europe, Giuseppe Verdi would go on to become the world’s most recognizable name in opera. Set against the rise of the Italian states in the middle of the 19th Century, The Faithful depicts an artist bedeviled by his role not just as a composer, but as an unassuming icon of the Italian Unification and the birth of modern Italy. Through chance encounters in gilded Milanese salons and the hushed politics of the Italian opera, we experience the struggles of a man conflicted by his role as an artist and his commitment to a country yearning for independence.

"Il Trovatore, La Traviata, Aida, Otello, Falstaff--such are the operas which mark Giuseppe Verdi as one of the most successful of all operatic composers. He knew personal tragedy and frustration in the course of his long life (1813-1901), some of his early operas failed, and in his later years he found his reputation overshadowed by that of Wagner, yet few musicians have been so universally acclaimed and rewarded as Verdi. Today his talents are taken far more seriously by critics than they were fifty years ago, and his operas are immensely popular. The remarkable development of his small-town organist and choirmaster, who at nearly sixty produced the imposing and ever popular Aïda, at seventy-four the intensely dramatic Otello and at eighty the comic miracle of Falstaff, is now recognized. But Verdi was more than a great musician. He was a singularly lovable and human person, a formidable businessman, an ardent patriot. He knew and corresponded with all the great men of his day--musicians, artists and statesmen. Princes and peasants were his friends. Life on his farm at Sant'Agata was as dear to him as the applause at the world premiere of one of his operas. Carlo Gatti, who has spent a lifetime in the study of the maestro, has told his story in masterly fashion. His biography gives not only a full account of Verdi's activities as composer, but also describes his intimate life and the background of the stirring times in which he lived. It is a full, carefully detailed, heartwarming portrait, an inspiring study of a well-spent life. For many years one of Italy's leading music critics, Carlo Gatti is the author of several other musical biographies, including a life of Catalani. His 'Verdi' may be considered the standard biography. Originally published in 1939 and acclaimed throughout the music world, an English version is overdue. The present translation has been done by Elisabeth Abbott." --Dust jacket.
