About The Performance
Verdi’s charged drama of family strife and forbidden love stars tenor Michael Fabiano as Manrico, the bold troubadour unwittingly at war with his own brother. This turbulent tragedy of four characters caught in a web of family ties, politics, and love is a mainstay of the operatic repertory with a score as melodic as it is energetic, with infectious tunes that are not easily forgotten.
