Il Simon Boccanegra di Verdi -  Presentazione con Lorenzo Bianconi, Romano Prodi, Gianluca Farinelli

In 1880 Giulio Ricordi invited Verdi to take up the work Simon Boccanegra again in his hand to put it back on stage at the Teatro alla Scala the following year, almost twenty years after the fiasco of the first version - largely attributed to a libretto that was not completely successful - whose revision is entrusted to Arrigo Boito. Love, ambition and the thirst for revenge dominate all the characters except Simone, Doge-corsair over whom the dark and melancholy hue that characterizes this political and family drama is clouded.
