THE PLOT. In "La Traviata" we have portrayed the life of Violetta Valery, a gay and thoughtless beauty, the admiration of a circle of admirers, among whom is Alfredo Germont, whose passion assumes such intensity and candour that Violetta yields to its influence, and becomes, for a while, imbued with the feelings of a pure love. At the end of the First Act, the scene of which is laid in Violetta's house in Paris, Violetta realises the hollowness of the joy of the life she is leading. In the Second Act, the scene is laid in Violetta's house in the country. Here she and her lover are living in seclusion and contentment until Alfredo learns, by accident, that Violetta, in order now to maintain this establishment, has been disposing of her property. Stung by the dependent position he finds he has been occupying, he leaves hurriedly to obtain the necessary funds to wipe out, as he thinks, the disgrace. During his absence his father makes an appeal to Violetta to save Alfredo from ruin, and his father and sister from disgrace, by renouncing him. Violetta is at first terribly shaken at such a prospect, but her pure affection triumphs, and she consents to sacrifice her own happiness to ensure that of the only being she ever truly loved; she consequently flees to Paris, and resumes her old life among her old acquaintances. Alfredo and Violetta again meet in the rich saloons of a mutual friend in Paris, where he finds Violetta under the protection of Barone Douphol. Alfredo is not aware of the purity of Violetta's motive in leaving him, and, in a paroxysm of unmanly rage, terribly insults her before the assembled guests. In the last Act, we are shown the shocking sequel to the previous ones. Violetta, heart-broken, spirit-crushed, and emaciated, is just winning her way to the realm of hopes and fears. Alfredo's father, struck, perhaps, with remorse at having caused Violetta to promise to leave Alfredo without letting him know the real reason, has informed his son of Violetta's truth and fidelity. Alfredo hurries to the bedside, but only, alas, to snatch a few minutes of blissful return of the love of happier times, when death leaves him desolate.

This classic opera by Giuseppe Verdi, with libretto by Francesco Maria Piave, tells the tragic story of a Parisian courtesan, Violetta, who falls in love with a young nobleman, Alfredo. Their happiness is short-lived when Alfredo's father convinces Violetta to end the relationship for the sake of the family's reputation. La Traviata is a timeless tale of love, sacrifice, and redemption set to some of Verdi's most beautiful music.

Verdi’s now-popular opera was a fiasco in Venice in 1853, attributable perhaps to the prima donna being noticeably obese, despite apparently wasting with tuberculosis. Soon, however, Verdi’s scandalous love story was on stage contemporaneously at Her Majesty’s Theatre, Covent Garden and Drury Lane. Piave’s libretto depicts Violetta and Alfredo Germont, the Marguerite and Armand of The Lady with the Camelias by Alexandre Dumas (son of the author of The Count of Monte Cristo and The Three Musketeers). The bestseller was based on the short life of the courtesan Marie Duplessis, mistress of a duke, a viscount and a baron – in Paris the ‘oldest profession’, prostitution, was the only way many women could survive, as Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables depicts. Featuring some of Verdi’s best-loved tunes, such as the ‘Brindisi’ and Violetta’s Sempre libera, La Traviata is enduringly popular. Violetta has been sung by international operatic sopranos such as Patti and Melba, and recently Gheorghiu. Some, like Joan Sutherland, have preferred to stay off-stage and make an opera recording. Domingo and Pavarotti have sung the role of Alfredo. Written by Michael Steen, author of the acclaimed The Lives and Times of the Great Composers, ‘Short Guides to Great Operas’ are concise, entertaining and easy to read. They are packed with useful information and informed opinion, helping to make you a truly knowledgeable opera-goer, and so maximising your enjoyment of a great musical experience. Other ‘Short Guides to Great Operas’ that you may enjoy include Rigoletto, Carmen and La Bohème.

The powerful collide with the powerless, with earth shattering consequences for all involved. Combining Verdi's breathtaking music with a new English version from Becca Marriott and Helena Jackson, this is La Traviata exposed, uncovered and redefined for the twenty first century.

How did Paris and its musical landscape influence Verdi's La traviata? In this book, Emilio Sala re-examines La traviata in the cultural context of the French capital in the mid-nineteenth century. Verdi arrived in Paris in 1847 and stayed for almost two years: there, he began his relationship with Giuseppina Strepponi and assiduously attended performances at the popular theatres, whose plays made frequent use of incidental music to intensify emotion and render certain dramatic moments memorable to the audience. It is in one of these popular theatres that Verdi probably witnessed one of the first performances of Dumas fils' La Dame aux camélias, which became hugely successful in 1852. Making use of primary source material, including unpublished musical works, journal articles and rare documents and images, Sala's close examination of the incidental music of La Dame aux camélias - and its musical context - offers an invaluable interpretation of La traviata's modernity.

Professor Kimbell's classic study illuminates the first fifteen years of Verdi's composing career, the era that culminated in his trio of masterpieces, Rigoletto, Il Trovatore and La Traviata. Verdi had become an acknowledged master of the peculiar brand of Romanticism that flourished in Italy in the 1830s and 40s; this background is examined in its political, social and literary light, and his consequent transformation of Italian operatic conventions is analysed. The four parts of Professor Kimbell's book range over biographical, documentary, literary and close-analytical ground. Attention is given to individual operas in order to show how Verdi assimilated and developed the Romantic tradition in his work.
