Rigoletto

Sobre o Evento

Rigoletto, Giuseppe Verdi's classic tragedy, is the story of the cursed court jester whose obsession to gain revenge for his daughter's violated honour turns viciously against him. 

 

Beloved and familiar arias from Rigoletto include "Caro nome" and "La donna e mobile." Incensed by the rapacious Duke of Mantua's seduction of his beloved daughter Gilda, Rigoletto plots the duke's assassination. But Gilda, hopelessly in love, sacrifices herself to save the duke. The curtain falls as Rigoletto desperately embraces his dying daughter, whose death he himself has caused in a horrifying mistake.
