Nabucco is the short name for Nabucodonosor (English: “Nebuchadnezzar”). Giuseppe Verdi composed the opera in 1841. It was based on the Italian libretto by Temistocle Solera and based on the biblical books in which the Jewish people strive for freedom from Babylonian captivity.
On March 9, 1842, the premiere took place at La Scala in Milan. This is how Giuseppe Verdi became famous.
Because of its beautiful and memorable melodies, the opera is one of the most popular operas of all. The freedom choir (choir of the Hebrew slaves) is of central importance. “Va, pensiero, sull’ali dorate” – Fly thought on golden wings!
Verona is world famous for the Opera Festival in the Arena di Verona, which attracts millions of music lovers every summer. The Arena di Verona is the world’s largest open-air opera theatre with space for up to 22,000 spectators on the steps of the 45 rows of seats.
Every year we create exclusive music trips to Italy for friends of opera and ballet. Operas of the leading Italian composers Giuseppe Verdi, Giacomo Puccini and Gioachino Rossini are favourite in the Arena. Enjoy the extraordinary atmosphere at the Roman amphitheatre in the heart of Verona in the summer months under the open sky. Please make your travel plans early and select a performance of interest. Because, if there are less than two months to go, the best tickets might be sold out, the hotels might have increased prices and things may become difficult. With our music tours you get the best seats, on upholstered chairs, together with a nice stay program in Verona.
