Based on a true story, it tells of the passionate consumptive Violetta. There are many echoes of Verdi's own life in Traviata and he threw himself into the music. The highlights include the Brindisi, the best known drinking song in opera, the duet Un Di Felice and Violetta's haunting aria Addio Del Passato.
This magnificent production boasts sumptuous sets and costumes.
