Overview
Violetta Valery's world of non-stop parties, flowing wine, and wealthy admirers is killing her. A devoted young man wants to save her, but their world is shattered when she is forced to sacrifice her happiness for the sake of his family.
Based on one of the great romances (the same story was the basis of the films Camille and Baz Luhrman's Moulin Rouge), Verdi's inspiration gave birth to an opera of heartbreaking poignancy.
The Sarasota Orchestra returns to the pit to renew its collaboration with Sarasota Opera.
