About the event "Il Trovatore"
Il Trovatore, by Guiseppi Verdi, will be on stage on October 13 at the Casino Estoril. Premiered in 1853, Il Trovatore is the second opera in the Verdian Popular Trilogy, along with Rigoletto and La Traviata. An opera in four acts, based on the novel by Antonio Garcia Gutiérrez, Il Trovatore tells the story of the gypsy Azucena, who, driven mad by the death of her mother, ordered to be burned for witchcraft, makes the mistake of throwing her own son into the fire instead of the son of the count who condemned her mother to the stake. The protagonist, Manrico, a typically romantic hero, considers himself Azucena's son and is in love with Leonora, a lady of the court, who reciprocates his feelings. His opponent is the Count of Luna, powerful, cruel and rejected by Leonora.
