Премьера оперы «Аида». Сюжет программы «Царская ложа»

Slaves, commanders, and kings — all are equal in the face of love, jealousy, a longing for home, or a thirst for victory. Aida crystallizes vast musical riches and white-hot passions. Written for a theatre in Cairo to celebrate the opening of the Suez Canal, this opera, based on a story from the time of the pharaohs, is recognized as an unqualified masterpiece. The Mikhailovsky Theatre’s production defers to Verdi’s original score. The stage setting, metaphorical and elegant, highlights the principal characters’ profound emotions and serves as an exquisite background for the music of a genius.
