Verdi: La Traviata (2007)
Directed by Liliana Cavani
Overview
Live from La Scala Saturday 07 July 2007. In this live performance of Giuseppe Verdi’s opera, Violetta, a courtesan much wooed by Parisian society, organises a grand party that is attended, amongst others, by the young Alfredo Germont. He confesses his feelings to Violetta, who is already suffering from consumption. She vacillates between genuine affection and a realistic assessment of her situation as a “fallen woman”, which precludes any lasting relationship with a man.
