Tenor Opera AriasVerdi Glinka R. Strauss Rossini Adam Giordano PucciniIt was at the initial request of the tenor EnricoTamberlick, the first Alvaro, that Giuseppe Verdi was persuaded to return towork to write his opera La forza del destino for the Russian Imperial Theatre.This was given its first performance in St Petersburg in November 1862, but isnow generally heard in a revised version that was first staged at La Scala,Milan, in 1869. The plot, later modified, is one of some complexity, derivedfrom a play by the Duke of Rivas. Don Alvaro is in love with Leonora, butaccidentally kills her father, leading to a long search for revenge by herbrother, Don Carlo. Leonora, believing her lover dead, retires to a hermitage,and Don Alvaro to a neighbouring monastery, the revelation of their finalmeeting coinciding with the appearance of Don Carlo, his death at the hands ofa reluctant Don Alvaro and his final murder of Leonora, as he dies. The Act IIIrecitative and aria, Qual sangue sparsi, from the first version of the opera,is heard after Don Alvaro, on campaign with Don Carlo, where the two havehitherto failed to recognise each other, engages in a duel with the latter,apparently killing him, an outcome that he can only bitterly regret.            Thelibretto of Verdi's opera Il Trovatore was also derived from a Spanish play, thework of Antonio Garcia Gutierrez. It was first staged in Rome in January 1853.The plot again concerns love and revenge. Manrico, the troubadour of the title,supposed son of the gypsy Azucena and in the service of Count Urgel, is in lovewith Leonora, who is also loved by the young Count Di Luna, a supporter of thePrince of Aragon. Their rivalry ends in the defeat and capture of Manrico bythe Count. Leonora offers herself to the Count in return for Manrico's life,taking poison, in order to outwit him. In the event she dies and Manrico is putto death, leaving Azucena, from her prison, to reveal that Manrico was in factthe Count's brother. In the third act Manrico is in possession of the fortressof Castellor, where he plans to marry Leonora, although the place is likely tobe attacked by the Count Di Luna. Something of this threat is inherent inLeonora's ominous Di qual tetra luce, a light that is actually and figurativelygloomy. Manrico assures her that if he must die, he will die with her name onhis lips.            Aperiod of six years followed Verdi's Egyptian opera, Aida, and it was only thenthat he turned his attention again to Shakespeare in Otello, first staged at LaScala in February 1887. By Act III Iago has succeeded in arousing Othello'sjealousy. In Datemi ancor l'eburnea mano, Othello takes Desdemona's hand,anxious to find out whether Iago's story of the handkerchief that he had givenher is true. His jealousy can only increase and in Act IV he murders his wifein her bed-chamber, only to learn that his suspic
