Opera based on the world-famous novel by A. Dumas The Lady with Camellias. La traviata  (loosely  lost ,  lost ,  the one who went astray ) belongs to the most famous works of the Italian opera great Giuseppe Verdi (1813 – 1901). The work was based on a libretto by Francesco Maria Piave, who was inspired by the well-known work of Alexandre Dumas Jr. (1824 – 1895)  Lady with camellias .

The model for the novel and the opera was a real person, the famous Parisian courtesan Marie Duplessis. Her name was changed to Marguerite Gautier in the novel to Violetta Valéry in the opera. The composer was   enthusiastic about Lady with Camellias . Both the story and the place where it took place were close to him - after all, it somewhat resembled his own life: he maintained an "illegal" relationship with the soprano Giuseppina Strepponi, a close friend and interpreter of his early works, from 1847 until her death. The premiere of the opera took place in Venice at the La Fenice theater on March 6, 1853 and was a fiasco. It failed completely with the audience - probably also because the main character was played by a courtesan, who was supposed to arouse sympathy and compassion.

At that time, no one, not even Verdi himself, apparently believed that one of the greatest evergreens of opera literature had been born. This was only confirmed by the next performance in 1854. After  Troubadour  and  Rigoletto  ,  La Traviata  became the last of the trio of significant Verdi works of the 1850s. A romantic opera with a tragic ending, it is a beautifully told love story - it still appeals to audiences all over the world. The State Opera returns to this work again in a musical staging by Lorenzo Tazzieri and directed by Dana Dinková.

Opera na námet svetoznámeho románu A. Dumasa Dáma s kaméliami. La traviata (voľne zblúdilá, stratená, tá, ktorá zišla z cesty) patrí k najznámejším dielam talianskeho operného velikána Giuseppe Verdiho (1813 – 1901). Dielo vzniklo na libreto Francesca Mariu Piaveho, ktorý sa inšpiroval známym dielom Alexandra Dumasa ml. (1824 – 1895) Dáma s kaméliami.

Predlohou románu a opery bola skutočná osoba, slávna parížska kurtizána Marie Duplessisová. Jej meno bolo v románe zmenené na Marguerite Gautiera v opere na Violetta Valéry. Skladateľ bol Dámou s kaméliami nadšený. Príbeh aj miesto, kde sa odohrával mu boli blízke – koniec koncov, v niečom pripomínal jeho vlastný život: „nelegálny“ vzťah udržiaval s blízkou priateľkou a interpretkou svojich raných diel sopranistkou Giuseppinou Strepponiovou od roku 1847 až do jej smrti. Premiéra opery sa konala v Benátkach v divadle La Fenice 6. marca 1853 a bola fiaskom. Divácky úplne prepadla – zrejme aj z toho dôvodu, že hlavnú postavu stvárňovala kurtizána, ktorá mala vzbudzovať sympatie a súcit.

Nikto, ani sám Verdi v tom čase zrejme neveril, že sa zrodil jeden z najväčších evergreenov opernej literatúry. To potvrdilo až ďalšie naštudovanie v roku 1854. Po Trubadúrovi a Rigolettovi sa La Traviata stala posledným z trojice výrazných Verdiho diel päťdesiatych rokov 19. storočia. Romantická opera s tragickým zakončením je nádherne vyrozprávaným príbehom lásky – dodnes oslovuje divákov na celom svete. Štátna opera sa k tomuto dielu opäť vracia v hudobnom naštudovaní Lorenza Tazzieriho a réžii Dany Dinkovej.
