Music by Giuseppe Verdi; libretto by Francesco Maria Piave. WHAT WOULD YOU DO FOR LOVE? Alfredo wants to be with Violetta, but love can mean different things. Alfredo toasts to true love and affection that endures, while Violetta celebrates desires that are fun, free, and fleeting. Persuaded to try another way of life, she agrees to stop playing games. But old habits die hard. Featuring one of opera’s ultimate soprano roles, La Traviata explores the passions and pitfalls of the heart.
