“Va, pensiero, sull’ali dorate” – Take flight, thought, on golden wings”. When those words first rang out in the Milan Scala on 9th March 1842, sung by the Hebrew slaves chorus in the third act of NABUCCO, Giuseppe Verdi's new opera, the master was making history. The “Slaves Chorus” was quickly adopted as the unofficial national anthem of a not-yet-unified Italy and the hopes of a generation of opera-goers were suddenly vested in the young composer.

The dramatic tale of Israelite subjugation under the Babylonian yoke of King Nebuchadnezzar remains one of Verdi's best-known operas and was last staged at the Deutsche Oper Berlin by Hans Neuenfels 13 years ago. In Verdi's anniversary year 2013 the material was being rendered by Keith Warner, one of the big names in international opera. The Englishman has directed LOHENGRIN at the Bayreuth Festival and THE RING OF THE NIBELUNG at Covent Garden and more recently for the Copenhagen Opera. Set in the same period that the piece was written, a time of transition from feudalism to a bourgeois, industrialising society, Warner's NABUCCO focuses on the opposing natures of two nations – the modern Hebrews, whose culture is informed by a script and by education as a democratic ideal, and the militaristic Babylonians, whose concept of a state is founded in autocratic rule.

In conversation with director Keith Warner and choirmaster William Spaulding. The drama about the Babylonian captivity of the people of Israel under King Nebuchadnezzar is one of Giuseppe Verdi's most popular operas. In the Verdi Year 2013, Keith Warner, one of the best-known directors on the international opera scene, presented his approach to the material. Based on the time when the play was created, which was characterized by the transition from feudal structures to bourgeois-industrial society, Warner places the contrast between two peoples in the foreground of his production: the Hebrews, whose culture is characterized by writing and a democratic educational ideal, and the militaristic Babylonians whose understanding of the state is based on an autocratic system of rule. Premiere: 8.
