Not seen by Toledo Opera audiences since 2008, Il Trovatore makes its triumphant return to the Valentine stage this fall. Set in Spain, Verdi's lush music tells the story of sorcery, familial revenge, bitter rivalry, and forbidden love. Count di Luna, is obsessed with Leonora, a young noblewoman in the queen’s service, who does not return his love. She loves the troubadour Manrico, leader of the partisan rebel forces. In di Luna's past, a bohemian woman seeks revenge for the murder of her mother. All of the confluent story lines culminate in tragedy, conducted by Maestro Adam Turner and staged by director Jeffrey Buchman.
Starring Metropolitan Opera Soprano Leah Crocetto as Leonora and Metropolitan Tenor Carl Tanner as Manrico.
Performed in Italian with English Supertitles.
