The three stories, involving two people independently linked with a third one, equally present the whole human drama — the dilemmas of love and desire, longings, yearnings, aspirations and transgressions. This very complex, multi-determined human experience is an embrasure into the Nature’s heart in more ways than we can imagine.
“Aida”, “Lakmé” and “The Pearl Fishers” speak about the duality between the wish to have more security and adventure. It’s not about wishing something else, but it’s about wishing challenge and adventure that may not provide the stability our heroes are longing for.

Verdi came to dominate the Italian opera scene after the era of Vincenzo Bellini, Gaetano Donizetti, and Gioachino Rossini, whose works significantly influenced him. By his 30s, he had become one of the pre-eminent opera composers in history.54,608 Ebooks in this category
