Guanqun Yu sings Elvira in "Ernani" at the Bregenz Festival

Six years before Rigoletto, Giuseppe Verdi set a gripping drama of love and revenge to music—and thus achieved his definitive breakthrough as a composer: Ernani. This opera, too, is based on a play by the French author Victor Hugo, whose text inspired Verdi's unique style of poignant arias, rousing choruses, and striking scenes. (Source: Bregenz Festival )
