Giuseppe Verdi's fifth opera is one of the most interesting of its early days. Ernani o el honor castellano is the first opera with a “Spanish theme”, an aspect that is going to be quite recurrent in his production. The work premiered at La Fenice in Venice in 1844. The libretto by Francesco Maria Piave is based on the drama Hernani by Victor Hugo, which had introduced Romanticism in Paris, overcoming the conventions of French classical theater. In this opera of youth, Verdi composes music full of vigor and freshness. Since its premiere, it has achieved enormous success, becoming part of the lyrical repertoire of all the opera houses in the world.
