Nadine Sierra leads the cast and Zubin Mehta conducts in this performance of Davide Livermore’s stylishly updated production of Verdi’s classic tear-jerker, La traviata, filmed at the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino in 2021. In reframing the action to the protest-filled Paris of 1968, the director sets our “Not to provoke…but to tell this story more closely, to develop the richness and modernity of Verdi’s masterpiece.” To help him do so, he has not only Sierra’s heartbreaking portrayal of Violetta, but also two superb Italian singers alongside her. tenor Francesco Meli sings Alfredo, her lover, while veteran baritone Leo Nucci portrays Alfredo’s father, whose interventions intensify the ultimate inevitable tragedy.
