The Elizabethan Philharmonic Orchestra
A masterpiece of Giuseppe Verdi's middIe period, Un Ballo ln Maschera is an opera with a history. When this opera was completed, the plot in which the Swedish King Gustav IIl is assassinated by his faithfuI secretary at a masked baIl coincided in the real worId with an unsuccessful attempt on the life of Napoleon Ill, with the resuIt that the opera failed to pass censorship. After many turns and twists, incIuding changing the setting to Boston and repIacing the Swedish monarch with the English Governor Riccardo, the opera was finaIly premiered in Rome in 1859.
The AustraIian Opera presents the originaI Swedish version of this production. With a mixture of dark humor, passion, tragedy, and comedy, this is a gem of Verdi's operatic works in which peopIe's confIicting emotions are superbly expressed. |
