CONTENT
"A beautiful, original, interesting material with wonderful situations and passionate: passions above all!" - Giuseppe Verdi requested in a famous letter from his librettist Antonio Somma. Verdi, after the labor-intensive "Galley Years" artistically and financially well secured, found the beautiful and passionate subject sought in a historically true story: the assassination of the Swedish King Gustaf III. While the material on the opera stage had previously been tested several times, it was only through Verdi that he came to musical immortality, which - despite all censorship and editing confusion - had its premiere in Rome in 1859. Unbal in maschera has played around 600 times on the board of the Haus am Ring, making it one of the great elements of Verdi's repertoire.
