The Operas of Verdi: Volume 2: From Il Trovatore to La Forza

The Operas of Verdi: Volume 2: From Il Trovatore to La Forza del Destino (Clarendon Paperbacks)

Volume Two covers those works written during the decadence of the post-Rossini period. During this time, Verdi, having exhausted the vein of simple lyricism to be found in Il Trovatore and La Traviata, achieved self-renewal in direct confrontation with the masters of the Paris Opera with his Les VÃªpres Siciliennes. A new scale and variety of musical thought can be sensed in the Italian operas that follow, culminating in La Forza del Destino.
