Stiffelio

Love, betrayal, death, and forgiveness – Verdi's "Stiffelio" is full of drama. Too much for the censors, who banned the first version before its 1850 premiere. The original scores, believed lost, were rediscovered in Naples over 100 years later. Audiences can expect an exciting encounter with a rarely performed early work.
