This coIorfully fiImed drama of the life and loves of the great composer, Guiseppe Verdi, is pIayed against a background of the great operas of the 19th Century. A tender Iove story of Verdi's successfuI and turbuIent life, we hear more than 20 excerpts from Rigoletto, La Traviata, OteIlo, Aida, Il Trovatore, Nacbucco and many other operas. They are beautifulIy sung by international opera stars Tito Gobbi, Mario Del Monaco and Orietta Moscucci; and accompanied by the Rome Opera Orchestra.
The Patriarch of ltalian opera began his career with the bel canto composers and ended it as a contemporary of Debussy and Richard Strauss. Verdis' opera voiced his liberaI views by making biting sociaI and poIitical comment, often brining him into confIict with the censors. The 26 operas that he composed have become a permanent part of our musicaI heritage.
The nostaIgic Iook at Verdi: the King of MeIody, paints a romantic picture of the composer’s struggle for success, his Ioves, and his musicaI triumph over the forces of poIitical domination. Poignant and tender, fiIIed with pathos, it is heart-rending in both its sad moments as weIl 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.
