Otello Verdi

Genehmigt

An incredible drama … Otello is an opera of extremes.  Otello transforms from loving husband to cold-blooded killer, as he puts his trust in the manipulative...

Otello has been called the Everest beside which all other Italian operas are foothills. It is undoubtedly one of the greatest operas ever written, displaying perfection and beauty, both dramatic and musical. This is due to three people: William Shakespeare, whose Othello is itself a masterpiece of dramatic intensity; Arrigo Boito, who did a consummate job of turning Shakespeare’s play into a libretto; and Giuseppe Verdi, who was at the peak of his powers, having evolved into a late style of composition marked by sophistication, subtlety, and economy. Nothing superfluous, nothing but what is absolutely necessary to the drama, as little noise as possible.
