Verdi’s music is inseparable from Venice. No fewer than five operas were commissioned by La Fenice theatre, the most notable of which are La Traviata and Simon Boccanegra. It is precisely this latter masterpiece that the Venetian institution has chosen to perform. Although the action takes place in 14th-century Genoa, the whole of La Serenissima lends itself wonderfully to the plot. Visitors will of course visit the Doge’s Palace and its sublime ornate rooms, St Mark’s Basilica and its extraordinary Byzantine mosaics, not to mention the marvellous palazzi, where Simon Boccanegra could live and stroll. The charm of Venice remains eternal, while embracing modernity, as evidenced by the magnificent contemporary art collections at the Punta della Dogana.
Attending a new production at La Fenice is always a privilege, but when it comes to a Verdi opera, you are guaranteed an unforgettable evening, performed by an Italian team entirely devoted to the Italian composer’s music. Viva Verdi (and Venice)!
