Guiseppe Verdi: 1813 - 1901 (Unabridged)
Publisher: Ivan and Inge Berg
Author: John Green
Audio lenght: 59 min.
Copiously illustrated by excerpts from Verdi's music, this programme tells how the composer rose from humble origins to become the unrivalled master of Italian opera. Living in the time of Italian unification, his music and his life became entwined with politics and patriotism and his melodies were taken up as battle cries in the Italian fight against foreign domination. This programme explores the fertility of his musical imagination and his deep but unconventional religious faith.
