Nabucco Verdi

Pittsburgh Opera's powerful production of Verdi's NABUCCO tells the epic story of the Jews in exile in Babylon.

In this scene, the exiled Jews sing an excerpt of that most beloved of choruses, “Va, pensiero” on the banks of the Euphrates. 

Recorded on Oct. 8, 2015 at the full dress rehearsal.

What made Nabucco LARGER THAN LIFE? The chills you got when Mark Delavan (who's sung here as Falstaff, Rigoletto, and Scarpia) portrayed the troubled monarch. The epic story of the Jews in exile in Babylon. The impressive and affecting projections that accompanied this big, traditional production. That most beloved of choruses, "Va, pensiero." The poignant family story of betrayal and reconciliation at the heart of the opera.

Nabucco by Verdi, From (2015/2015), Directed by Bernard Uzan,, Conductor Antony Walker, Benedum Center, Pittsburgh, United States
