Giuseppe Verdi had actually already completed his opera compositions until he held in his hands the libretto by Arrigo Boito, based on Shakespeare’s play “Othello”. In 1884 Verdi now began composing his penultimate opera, creating a masterpiece of Italian opera literature whose premiere at La Scala in Milan in 1887 was a resounding success. This Milan performance, staged by Graham Vick, opened the Scala season in 2001 and was also a grand finale to the Verdi year. |
