Italian
composer Giuseppe Verdi
dominated the opera world
for most of the
nineteenth century, and
his works remain a
mainstay of theaters
around the world. From
Rigoletto's sprightly La
donna é mobile to the
rousing Anvil Chorus of
Il Trovatore, the
composer's music is known
and loved by people
who've never set foot in
an opera house. Now
novice keyboardists of
all ages can play
selections from Verdi's
most popular works with
these special
arrangements of 32
pieces.
Highlights
include the charming aria
Heavenly Aida from the
opera set in Egypt during
the reign of the
pharaohs; Nabucco's
Chorus of the Hebrew
Slaves, also known as Va,
pensiero (Hasten,
Thoughts); the Prelude to
Act III of La Traviata;
the opening of Requiem,
Verdi's setting of the
Catholic Mass for the
Dead; plus selections
from Macbeth, Otello,
Jerusalem, and other
operas. Each selection
features a brief
introduction, and all the
compositions are
available as downloadable
MP3s (see inside for
details).
