Verdi's first published opera, written in his 20s, already shows the instinctive melodic gift and heightened sense of drama which was to make him a giant among composers of grand opera. Set in 13th century Italy, Oberto was first performed at La Scala, Milan in 1839 - 54 years before his last opera was premiered there - and prepared the way for a lifetime's work which would culminate in some of the finest music ever written.

  • The string parts here are a bit reminiscent of the string accompaniment for one of Zaccaria's arias from Nabucco.

  • Because it's an ad for Opus Arte. They want you to buy the DVD.
