Opera “La Traviata”
Homage to Giuseppe Verdi
Sunday the 10th of February 2013
Gala Dinner & Entertainment.
The Ball will be located on the first floor (the pianonobile) in an authentic 14th century Palace: Pesaro Papafava, With its precious gothic facade and its elegant quadriform gothic windows overlooking the canal of the Misericordia. The palace will be illuminated entirely with candlelights to create a memorable atmosphere.
Traviata is among the most famous operas by Verdi. The first performance of the opera was on 6 March 1853 at the La Fenice opera house in Venice. The story is a quintessential romantic attack on conventional bourgeois morality, arguing that a good heart is more important than propriety, that the social distinctions which split the beau monde (high society) from the demimonde (the world of illicit sex) are cruel and hypocritical, and that true love must triumph over all.
