Description

l trovatore (The Troubadour) is an opera in four acts by Giuseppe Verdi to an Italian libretto by Leone Emanuele Bardare and Salvatore Cammarano, based on the play El Trovador by Antonio García Gutiérrez.

It was first performed at the Teatro Apollo, Rome on 19 January 1853. In 1857 Verdi revised the opera for Paris as Le trouvère and added a ballet.



On many different occasions, this opera and its music has been featured in various forms of popular culture and entertainment. Scenes of hilarious comic chaos play out over a performance of the opera in the Marx Brothers's film, A Night at the Opera, while, on a more serious note, the opening sequence of Luchino Visconti's 1954 film Senso features a performance at La Fenice. Noting that the opera is very easy to produce, Enrico Caruso once said that "All you need is the four best singers in the world."
