Rigoletto in 60 Seconds
Manage episode 331490739 series 2924017
Description
Need a quick refresher on the plot of Verdi’s Rigoletto? Take a minute to get the scoop!
Fun Fact
Rigoletto premiered on 11 March 1851 in a sold-out La Fenice as the first part of a double bill with Giacomo Panizza's ballet Faust. The opening night was a complete triumph, especially the scena drammatica and the Duke's cynical aria, "La donna è mobile", which was sung in the streets the next morning. It initially had a run of 13 performances and was revived in Venice the following year, and again in 1854.
