It is a valuable performance of the fifth score composed by Giuseppe Verdi for the venetian theater in 1856/57 and then revised by the same author with a definitive draft of 1881.
Gloomy work, tangled in the action, fragmented, defined “lame” by Verdi himself after the first version, it presents unprecedented dramaturgical solutions and a sense of linguistic experimentation that make it risky to deal with.
To function, it needs a unitary interpretative cut that harmonises its composite and elusive atmosphere.
