Classical Music Discoveries

Attila is an opera with a prologue and three acts by Giuseppe Verdi to an Italian libretto by Temistocle Solera, based on the 1809 play Attila, King of the Huns by Zacharias Werner. The opera received its first performance in Venice on 17 March 1846.

Ezio's act 2 aria of heroic resolution My lot is cast, I am prepared for any warfare is a fine example of a characteristic Verdian genre, and it achieved fame in its own time with audiences in the context of the adoption of a liberal constitution by Ferdinand II. Other contemporary comment praised the work as suitable for the political education of the people, while, in contrast, others criticised the opera as Teutonic in nature.
