La traviata es una ópera en tres actos de Giuseppe Verdi, basada en un libreto de Francesco Maria Piave, inspirado en la obra de Alexandre Dumas (hijo) La señora de las camelias. Forma parte de la "trilogía popular" junto a Il trovatore y Rigoletto. Compuesta en parte en la villa de los editores Ricordi en Cadenabbia, en el lago de Como, debutó en el Teatro La Fenice de Venecia el 6 de marzo de 1853, pero inicialmente fracasó debido a intérpretes inadecuados y a la delicadeza del tema. Fue retomada al año siguiente con un mejor elenco y finalmente logró el éxito merecido. Debido a las críticas a la sociedad burguesa, la ópera sufrió modificaciones por parte de la censura en varios teatros italianos, con algunos fragmentos alterados y un cambio de ambientación del siglo XIX al XVIII.

"Il Trovatore" is considered the epitome of romantic Italian opera. During Verdi's lifetime, it was one of his most popular works, quickly performed on stages after its premiere in 1853 in Rome. The opera is celebrated for its tumultuous and powerful music, which continues to captivate audiences today. The libretto, written by Salvadore Cammarano and based on the play "El Trovador" by Antonio García Gutiérrez, showcases themes of love, revenge, and the complexities of fate, set against a backdrop of political intrigue and familial conflict. The dramatic narrative unfolds through a series of intense and emotionally charged arias, duets, and choruses, making it a cornerstone of the operatic repertoire. The enduring appeal of "Il Trovatore" lies in its ability to convey deep human emotions through its rich musical landscape.

With his third opera "Nabucco," Verdi achieved his first major stage success, despite having considered giving up composing. The "Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves," "Va, pensiero, sull'ali dorate," is well-known among opera lovers and exemplifies how Verdi created some of his most expressive melodies when he felt compassion for the oppressed or humiliated. This book includes the Italian libretto and a common German translation, along with introductory comments that explore the musical and dramatic elements of the opera, highlighting its compositional structure and thematic connections. A brief summary of the plot and an overview of the opera's creation place the work within the broader context of the composer's oeuvre and biography, providing a comprehensive and richly illustrated introduction.

The English National Opera Guides were originally conceived in partnership with the English National Opera and edited by Nicholas John, the ENO's dramaturg, who died tragically in an accident in the Alps. Most of the guides are devoted to a single opera, which is described in detail—with many articles that cover its history and information about the composer and his times. The complete libretto is included in both the original language and in a modern singing translation—except where the opera was written in English. Each has a thematic guide to the most important musical themes in musical notation and each guide is lavishly illustrated. They also contain a bibliography and a discography which is updated at each reprint. The ENO guides are widely regarded as the best series of their kind and excellent value.

In "Simon Boccanegra," Verdi created one of his most distinctive and nuanced heroes in the figure of the Genoese Doge. The character's quest for political unity in Italy reflects Verdi's own contemporary concerns. The opera explores themes of power, betrayal, and the complexities of leadership, set against a backdrop of political intrigue and personal sacrifice. Through Boccanegra's journey, Verdi delves into the moral dilemmas faced by those in authority, making the work a profound commentary on the nature of governance and the human condition.
