Nabucco will screen in St. Louis this Sunday, May 18th at 12 noon at Landmark’s Tivoli Theater
Plácido Domingo, one of the most celebrated talents of our time, makes a major role debut in an unmissable new production of Nabucco, the Italian-language opera in four acts composed in 1841 by Giuseppe Verdi. Nabucco follows the plight of the Jews as they are assaulted, conquered, and subsequently exiled from their homeland by the Babylonian King Nabucco (in English, Nebuchadnezzar). The historical events are used as background for a romantic and political plot. The best-known number from the opera is the “Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves,” Va, pensiero, sull’ali dorate / “Fly, thought, on golden wings,” a chorus which is regularly given an encore in many opera houses when performed today.
In this production, recorded earlier this year, Domingo takes another thrilling step into baritone repertory as he sings the title role of Nabucco for the first time.
