Mort de Didon - Tatiana Troyanos - Les Troyens Berlioz

Tatiana Troyanos at The Metropolitan Opera. Conductor: James Levine. Staged by: Fabrizio Melano
October 8, 1983

Didon ascends the pyre, removes her veil and throws it on Énée's toga. She has a vision of a future African warrior, Hannibal, who will rise and attack Rome to avenge her. Didon then stabs herself with Énée's sword, to the horror of her people. But at the moment of her death, she has one last vision: Carthage will be destroyed, and Rome will be "immortal". The Carthaginians then utter one final curse on Énée and his people, vowing vengeance for his abandonment of Didon, as the opera ends.

Dido asciende a la pira, se quita el velo y lo arroja sobre la toga de Eneas. Ella tiene una visión donde ve al guerrero africano Aníbal que se levantará en armas para atacar Roma y así vengarla. Dido se mata con la espada de Eneas ante el horror de su gente, pero al momento de morir, en una última visión dice: Cartago será destruida y Roma será inmortal. Los cartagineses al final piden venganza de Eneas y su gente por el abandono de Dido y termina la ópera.
