This colorfulIy filmed drama of the life and Ioves of the great composer, Guiseppe Verdi, is played against a background of the great operas of the 19th Century. A tender love story of Verdi's successfuI and turbuIent life, we hear more than 20 excerpts from Rigoletto, La Traviata, OteIIo, Aida, II Trovatore, Nacbucco and many other operas. They are beautifully sung by international opera stars Tito Gobbi, Mario Del Monaco and Orietta Moscucci; and accompanied by the Rome Opera Orchestra.
The Patriarch of Italian opera began his career with the bel canto composers and ended it as a contemporary of Debussy and Richard Strauss. Verdis' opera voiced his liberal views by making biting social and poIitical comment, often brining him into confIict with the censors. The 26 operas that he composed have become a permanent part of our musical heritage.
The nostalgic look at Verdi: the King of MeIody, paints a romantic picture of the composer’s struggIe for success, his loves, and his musical triumph over the forces of politicaI domination. Poignant and tender, fiIled with pathos, it is heart-rending in both its sad moments as welI as in its times of joy. A theatricaI and criticaI success when the feature fiIm was reIeased in the US in 1974, Verdi: The King of Melody,will touch your heart.
