IL TROVATORE ("THE TROUBADOUR")

Set in fifteenth-century Spain, the story tells of the tragic rivalry between the Count of Luna and the troubadour Manrico for the love of the court lady Leonora, while the old gypsy Azucena, Manrico's adoptive mother, conceals a tragic secret that makes this struggle – rich in reversals, battles and dramatic twists – even more cruel: Manrico is in fact the Count's son. The opera closes with the deaths of the two young lovers and the anguish of the Count of Luna and Azucena.
With the revival of the successful production by Mexican director Francisco Negrin and conducted by Dmitri Jurowski, the title that opened Verdi's Trilogia Popolare ("Popular Trilogy") returns. The cast brings together voices of great interest, including the renowned Italian tenor Piero Pretti in the role of Manrico, the refined baritone Franco Vassallo as the Count of Luna, the Marche-born soprano Marta Torbidoni as Leonora, and the young Sofia Petrovich as Azucena, an artist on a steady upward trajectory following significant debuts at the Opéra de Paris.

Opera in four parts by Salvatore Cammarano.
First performance: Rome, Teatro Apollo theatre, 19 January 1853.
Music publisher: E. F. Kalmus & Co., New York
