Macbeth is one of Giuseppe Verdi’s most honest, exhilarating, and fierce operas. Of Shakespeare, Verdi wrote, “I have had him in my hands from my earliest youth, and I read and reread him continually.” Witness in Macbeth one of Shakespeare’s strongest women, Lady Macbeth, pursuing her path of ambition and manipulation. Verdi’s haunting music will keep you riveted as the story of the ferocious couple “trusting in the prophesies of hell” unfolds.
