In this third edition of the classic Verdi, renowned authority Julian Budden offers a comprehensive overview of Verdi the man and the artist, tracing his ascent from humble beginnings to the status of a cultural patriarch of the new Italy, whose cause he had done much to promote, and demonstrating the gradual enlargement over the years of his artistic vision. This concise study is an accessible, insightful, and engaging summation of Verdi scholarship, acquainting the non-specialist with the personal details Verdi's life, with the operatic world in which he worked, and with his political ideas, his intellectual vision, and his powerful means of communicating them through his music. In his survey of the music itself, Budden emphasizes the unique character of each work as well as the developing sophistication of Verdi's style. He covers all of the operas, the late religious works, the songs, and the string quartet. A glossary explains even the most obscure operatic terms current in Verdi's time.

Welcome to The Independent's new ebook series The Great Composers, covering fourteen of the giants of Western classical music. Extracted from Michael Steen's book The Lives and Times of the Great Composers, these concise guides, selected by The Independent's editorial team, explore the lives of composers as diverse as Mozart and Puccini, reaching from Bach to Brahms, set against the social, historical and political forces which affected them, to give a rounded portrait of what it was like to be alive and working as a musician at that time. With Verdi, Italian opera reached its zenith, where music and drama are fused into an indissoluble whole. Although he wrote 28 operas, less than half remain regularly performed. Yet those which are remain a gold standard of characterisation, stagecraft and musical vocabulary. Rigoletto, La Traviata, Un Ballo in Maschera, Aïda – the roll call is long, but it is especially with his final two operas, Otello and Falstaff, that he becomes the unassailable master. But it was not just the excellence of Verdi's artistry which propelled him to fame. Verdi was writing just as Italy was becoming increasingly resentful of Austria's domination, and there was a growing movement to unite the patchwork of territories of which Italy was composed at the time into a unified country. He became identified with the ambitions of reunification, and many of his operas, with their political subtexts, became rallying calls for the nationalists. Michael Steen unpicks how this most unsociable of men, a reluctant politician but a brilliant composer, became the figurehead for the birth of a nation. Born into a modest background, Verdi, with his sound business sense, grew rich and famous; rich enough to ignore the scandalised disapproval of his neighbours at his living openly with his mistress for many years before marrying her. At his death 200,000 people lined the streets to bid farewell to their hero.

Milano, 1879. La città è in fibrillazione: nel Teatro alla Scala, torrido e affollato, Giuseppe Verdi è pronto per dirigere una trionfale Messa di Requiem. Tutti però si chiedono: dopo sette anni di silenzio, il grande musicista scriverà finalmente una nuova opera? A sessantasei anni Verdi è un uomo forte, in piena salute, ma sembra che preferisca viaggiare, seguire i propri affari e curare la sua tenuta. Il suo editore getta l’esca di un’opera tratta dall’Otello di Shakespeare. Per il libretto avrebbe in mente un nome: Arrigo Boito, il poeta e musicista autore del Mefistofele. Ma perché Verdi parla tanto male di lui? La tormentata creazione dell’Otello si svolge sotto gli occhi smaliziati dell’io narrante Tobia Gorrio, lo scapigliato alter-ego di Boito, un anti-eroe goffo ma sincero, irresistibile, che conosce e stima profondamente il compositore ma a volte avrebbe voglia di gridare ‘Viva qualcun altro’ al posto di ‘Viva Verdi’. In un romanzo dall’atmosfera unica scopriamo la Milano del tempo: in divenire, mondana, popolata di personaggi eccentrici dove il Maestro Verdi è oggetto di pettegolezzi e atti di devozione; dove aspiranti dive del bel canto affollano la Galleria; dove una rivalità chiassosa e feroce infiamma le polemiche tra i grandi geni della musica. Scoppiettante, ironico, ricco di aneddoti e godibilissimo, Il Viva Verdi è l’affresco di un tempo e una città cangianti e frenetici in cui l’arte si univa al gusto popolare in modo unico e indimenticabile, sublime.
