Nabucco - Oper Stuttgart (2013-2014) - Nabucco - Oper Stuttgart (2013-2014)

Description

Co-Production with Welsh National Opera

Giuseppe Verdi‘s third opera Nabucco combines the Hebrew people’s destiny, who suffer under the Babylonian conquerors and their leader Nabucco (Nebukadnezar), with the story of one single family. The opera also succeeds in depicting how strong a people’s as well as an individual’s need for social and religious identity is permeated by archaic forces and political calculation.

Nabucco’s world premiere took place in 1842 at La Scala in Milano and strengthened Verdi’s reputation as the leading opera composer of his generation.

Cast below is only for the November 28th 2013, except for Dimitri Platanias.
