Di quell'amor ch'è palpitoDell'universo intero,
Misterioso, altero,
Croce e delizia al cor.
Of that unspoken love,
The pulse of the whole world,
Mysterious, unattainable,
The torment and delight of my heart.
Violetta and Alfredo were so enchanting that we totally forgot about how steamy it was in the theatre. This is only the third opera I have seen, and it was by far the most interesting. The staging and especially the performances were just beautiful.
To listen to some (or all) of La Traviata, check out this website: http://www.magazzini-sonori.it/esplora_contenuti/approfondimenti/traviata.aspx
